Only thing that's cool is Opera has an official repository for Ubuntu which is pretty sweet. The tabs not able to go below the address textbox and the confusing preferences dialog are my two biggest annoyances. Those, and the default theme it uses, blah.
@solidcube, it was not Mozilla Team's intention to kill any browser. Their goal is one and simple, to stop MS's monopoly.I know i know, there is a trails about MS, but there is tons of countries that claiming MS is monopoling their markets, and that what is MS intention all along. Since the beginning of MS, it their true intention, not every one see that. They paid a guy to perform a test on Linux and Window and compare it. so the so-call researcher claim that Window is better than Linux, until few months later, it was found out it not true at all because MS paid a guy to tell the world a big fat greatest lie of all. And that not good because it showing people what their real intention. MS want to stop the open source community because they are so greedy. MS is like a RIAA, RIAA is famous for creating a tons of lawsuit that they where doing so wrong all along.And Mozilla Team want the entire open source community to rise. And it is happening. Linux is rising better, OpenOffice.org is rising better, right now, there is a tons of open source programs and it pulling them away from MS, even MS owns about 95% market shares. I switched to OpenOffice.org last year and it amazing, there is many basic feature you use everyday. even a built-in free PDF creator. Sure OO.o is imperfect, all programs is imperfect. but it show it's worthy. There is one state that want to us ODF (Open Document Format, it based on OASIS format) in offices, in government owned building in that state. ODF is better than MS format because if you saved it 5 years ago in .ODF format, it will show the the same thing as it is now, even the word processor is upgraded. MS Word cant, they have to use a filtering to get the data out of '95 and '97 format but the data is probe to problematic because MS keep changing their code which affects the MS older format. Even MS claimed their newly designed XML format is .ODF format but there is a few people proved that MS's XML format is incorrect, it not based on .ODF format, it still entirely based on MS format.
Yeah well there was also a fraction of the people on digg at that time. I figured all the newcomers would appreciate that one again- and they did! chao..
