There has to be some kind of mistake here. Dont get me wrong I love Opera, it is the only browser i will use. I just finished a two week stint with FF3, to "give it a whirl" cuz I like popular stuff
And can honestly say that it is not ready for release yet..
(oh wait it is released lol j/k)
I never understand how people can bash IE when its been largely uncomplicated, ready to go out of the box and the biggest complaint against it was, security. Since FF took some of that 90% proliferation that IE had, it now has security issues too. *sigh* You know what really screws both browsers up? addons
I will stick with opera. the only "addon/extension" it needs is a spellchecker, that would be great for people that should not post like me. That is too say if I thought while posting I would not need a spell checker! edit: a grammar checker on the other hand....
Opera does everything out of the box. Mail, ad blocking etc etc (it is not adblocking though... its "content" blocking, so you can block objectional material.. (like big flashy advertisements
) tabbed browsing, resume from last if your PC crashes while opera is running. It remembers everything.
Hitting "back" on the browser window does not "relaod" the page, it goes back to exactly how you left it.. (same with forward) which is great if I am making a long post like this, I can hit back right now. read, hit forward and everything I typed is still there
Now aside from all of that favoritism...
I find it hard to beleive that opera uses 1/5th to 1/6th of the memory that both FF3 and Chrome do.
(well chrome is a n00b so it will be a while before that is usable...)
So take it with a pound of salt
