Opera browser users

[Helz]

If you're tempted to have a go at this sooper-dooper advanced browser but put off by the idea of paying for it or getting the tiny ad-bar, download it and get a registration code here, they're doing free registrations for their tenth anniversary

Thanks to Paulie for bringing this to my attention!

Sayeth someone who has never even tried Opera because he thinks all M$ things are the best

 

[The Negotiator]

That's where you're wrong! Both me and stu tried it, it took me 20 mins to go back to IE.

I used Opera for a while and liked it. The little ad bar annoyed me though, so this is cool. Cheers.

cant see how anyone who has tried tabbed browsing could go back to windows on IE

IE 7 will have option of tabbed browsing I understand, not that I understand it, I already have tabbed browsing (it's called the taskbar tray )

A lot of people don't like when they start because they have to do serious work to set it up. If you like something out of the box it's not for you. If you like something fully customisable then it's the best. If anyone wants a list of what they might want their options set to please let me know It's not just tabbed browsing it's the (again customisable) search bar, customisable toolbar, cookie manager, pop-up manager, email facility, little pop-up information bubbles, keyboard shortcuts, loading statistics, skins, cache manager, security manager. Did I miss anything?

Good god, it took them ten years to catch on! I know Opera has had this since at least v3 because I had it then, I tried v2 once but can't remember, will have to give it a go. As for proper tabs, the purpose is to reduce memory usage as well as make things easier

 

[The Negotiator]

But i have tabs, down here *points to bottom of the screen*, just means I can access them straight through without having to load the main screen first.

I'll try opera again tonight.... Doubt I am going to like it , but the reason I gave up on it was because of all the stupid adverts. I remember it being quite hard to setup aswell

 

[steve1219]

Tried IE7 already not to impressed with it, think I will be staying at 6.

*From Programming Experience* Opera isnt anywhere near as useful as I.E i can mention many reaosns (which no1 would understad lol) But in my 5 years of programming experience.. I.E or Yahoo Browser has to be the best.

Say what you like, but do you have programming skills to back it up?
