I finally found a worthy replacement for Google Chrome....it's called Opera 10.10 and it rocks!

Been using Chrome for over two years, but always felt there are a few things missing....welcome to Opera.

Opera uses lots of RAM, my notebook has lots of RAM, so it's a match made in heaven. :)

*Oh, and it looks awesome when you apply the top-rated skin.

So you've been using Chrome since the first beta?

I used Opera before switching over to Chrome. Opera does have aspects which makes it a great browser but I just find Chrome to be more streamlined. It's worthwhile trying Opera out for those who haven't done so yet.

I also used Opera before I switched to Chrome. To be honest, the only reason I made the change was because of a few peculiarities with Opera and several Google services like Gmail and Google Calendar. Otherwise, Opera is still an awesome browser. Stable, slick, and features built-in torrent support!

Opera rocks!

No need for the other, except maybe FireFox from time to time...

+1 I love Opera. I tried it out for years as alternative for firefox but it always had some small annoyance that kept me reverting back to good old ff. Now since I tried Opera 10.10 a little over a month ago I haven't looked back :). I keep ff as my backup browser now and for php and html programming mostly and for sites that dont work properly in Opera, like sterkinekor.com.

I also love Opera. I really like the "turbo" function. Not because it speeds up my browsing (it actually slows it down a bit), but because it can save you a pretty sum in data usage :)
