Damn software makes the header of my site show up funny. But I don't like the design of it ... Firefox FTW.
 
It is beta OSS..... its going to be as holy as the pope for a bit while everyone tinkers.
 
For myself it feels faster and zippier than firefox.

Just complaining about the pista look tho...

ball ache to compile in linux as well :D

Not enough of an improvement on any of the other browsers available for linux to warrant me installing it on more boxen
 
Get opera :-) as fast as chrome with less security threats than ff
 
anyone got an idea how to make those little help popup things take longer to "pop-up" like if you check the new posts section and i scroll over the posts it keeps giving that little popup and its quite irritating.

Any help will be appreciated

I really hate Opera. Way too unstable. I like Chrome, but with reservations.

Likes:
The extra screen real estate.
The favorites thumbnails and history page on opening a new tab
Seems to be less of a processor hog than FF3 - that may be due to the add-ons though, so wait and see.
The stability, esp. at Beta stage, very impressive.

Dislikes:
Butt ugly
Difficult to configure proxies
Doesn't up/downscale images on mouse zoom
No add-ons yet.

Add to that the fact that some CSS-rendering inconsistencies on existing websites...

When last did you use Opera and on which OS?:rolleyes:
 
I was using Opera a few months ago actually. Tried it out for a month and gave it up because nothing seems to work properly. Plus FF3 add-ons do all its best features perfectly well. System was XP Home.
