| Well, I have been using Opera for years. |

And I do have to say, it's nice to see another browser to compete with IE, but I can't say I'll start using FF anytime soon.
I have tried it, and am actually installing it on all new machines at work (removing all links to IE), but it's just to 'my first browser in visual basic'-ish for me....it feels to tonka-toy like and lacks somewhere.
I like Opera for a few reasons, one is the 'tabbed' browsing which work realy great (as opposed to FF where it realy doesn't).
Another is the mouse navigation (hold left button, press right for forward, hold right and click left for back), in FF there is a plugin to emulate this, but it's bunk.
Pages are more often adjusted so that they display correctly, and if they don't it a simple mouseclick away to set Opera to fake it being IE 6 :) (just to get around stupid script to check the browser) (this solves 90% of problems with difficult pages for me)
The ads in Opera don't bother me, I use a 1280x1024 TFT and the ads are quite small compared to that. (plus I use an ad-blocker so it's white most of the time anyway)
Ps. These are just opinions, not meant to insult/hurt anyone :p |
