Re:Opera Still Rules (Score 1)

I agree. I've used opera since version 3 and I'm still using it with the newest version. Recently I tried the 1.0 firefox preview build and I didn't like it one bit. It was so simple compared to Opera. To get even near the same configurability, settings and features I'd have to download some darn extensions/plugins. Opera is fast, it has a very good interface which can be shaped in almost any way. The features are great: the best popup blocker I've seen yet, excellent wand (the auto-username/password prog) and gestures. With the newest version I haven't seen a single page which hasn't worked with Opera. Almost every feature in Opera is just so much deeper than in Firefox, with the default browser at least. I hate the extension style so I'm not going to comment on the features that come with them, since I haven't tested any. And it's a free browser damn it, I've used it for years and haven't bought it. I'm happy that with the newest 7.5+ versions the ad-bar is much less visible. I don't notice it these days. Firefox is so darn weak at the moment that it will have to grow a lot more before I'd even think about it. At the moment Opera does indeed blow other browsers out of the water.
