- inactive, on 10/27/2007, -13/+62Every thing i wanted :).
IMO Guys there will be little reason to use Firefox now !!. - gmjonker, on 10/22/2007, -3/+44omg... bookmark synchronization... finally!
- Spuy767, on 10/10/2007, -5/+45Opera > Firefox imo, seems like every feature that firefox comes out with, Opera had it first, and does it better.
- wang1011, on 10/27/2007, -3/+41wish more people knew about opera, firefox may have more potential but requires searching for all the plug ins, whereas opera is hot right out of the box
- lordtyros, on 10/10/2007, -1/+39OMG THIS MAKES DIGG COMMENTS FAST
- NikoK, on 10/22/2007, -4/+41So at version 10...there should be no need to use any other browser but Opera...Since it's clearly a godsent browser
- Zoialord, on 10/10/2007, -2/+37Very nice release and fast as you can get
- exclipy, on 10/10/2007, -1/+28Opera once again demonstrates its prowess in innovation with the new feature list - such as the full history search.
- RyomaNagare, on 10/10/2007, -2/+27Been using for least than 5 minutes, and I already love it. most of the site specific anoyances that broke my opera 9.23 are now fixed.
i can't wait to try the mac build this evening... - LucasVB, on 10/22/2007, -1/+22Wow, the new JavaScript engine kicks ass. Digg is so slick now.
Oh, and the RSS feeds work flawlessly now. Awesome! - Quaitemp, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18Please allow up to 60 seconds for your comment to be saved (unless you are using Opera 9.5...)
;)
Remember to check out the syncing of bookmarks too! - DagMX, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17downloading...hopefully a lot of non-opera compatible sites will work better now..
- zen6ox, on 10/22/2007, -0/+17I love Opera's mouse gestures.
- elvenseven, on 10/10/2007, -1/+17It's WAY faster compared to Firefox especially rendering these fancy Ajax effects on Digg. Diggs not displaying well on it btw.

You simply don't hear from them as much you firefox fans because we don't act like we're god's gift to browsers with our ridiculous campaign on every site getting people to switch as if it's the only alternative to ie.
- Yazilliclick, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17People use junk like google toolbar? wow. I mean the only people I ever see having any crapy resource munching toolbars hacked onto their browsers are the computer illiterates who are running spyware infested zombie boxes and using ie 6 or earlier.
- mRku, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15"Now if only Adobe would fix Flash for Opera"
What's the problem? Flash is working just fine for me. :& - bovester, on 10/22/2007, -1/+16I'm the same way, used to be an avid Firefoxer but now Opera is the only browser I use!
Just wish more plugins were available, and that their Javascript support was better for drop-down menus and such... - 52tease, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15Direct link: http://www.opera.com/products/desktop/next/
- chris4404, on 10/14/2007, -2/+16Awesome!
- Rapax, on 10/10/2007, -1/+14Yep, works perfectly. Only it's not an extension, but built in by default.
- LucasVB, on 10/10/2007, -1/+14I don't understand that complaint. Opera is already lighter than Firefox - in memory use and disk space - with all this stuff bundled. Also, most of these features are disabled by default. So what gives?
- zoomtechtv, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15Just tested it on two sites that I go to that had problems before. No more problems with those two sites anymore. This is a very good release from Opera everyone should give it a try. AAAAAAAA++++++++++++++++++++++++++
- kris33, on 10/22/2007, -2/+15Wow. This is amazing. It is REALLY fast! I'm very close to loving it, but there are some problems.
- It render headers too bold, at least on OS X. The digg news titles are difficult to read because of it.
- The logo sucks.
- The OS X GUI look really bad and feels like a cheap imitation.
- It is difficult to turn off some of the integrated things, like BitTorrent and mail (you have to open the config-files).
- I miss some FF-plugins like Linkification
- Some bugs
If they fix those bugs, Opera will probably become my browser of chose - LucasVB, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13History search is a godsend feature. It's one of those features you know you always needed but never really realized it until you had it available. :P
- fit4130, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12This new version is a big leap for opera. The past few builds haven't had too many new features. I guess this is the reason why, and I am not complaining. I love Opera, and I don't care how sad that sounds, I really do.
I've also noticed that scrolling is different, as in it scrolls normally then slows down before it stops. Very nice. - daonlyfreez, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13Oh, the brainless fanboys
- CLShortFuse, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11I went from IE6 to Opera then back to IE7. I could never stick with Firefox because of the lack of a proper save dialog box but I think it's time to move back to Opera. Open, Save, Cancel (WIN!)
- CybrStuff, on 10/22/2007, -0/+11Looks fine to me (JPEG artifacting notwithstanding):
http://i19.tinypic.com/4xxa3o1.jpg - exclipy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11I don't see what you're on about; Opera has been completely free for years.
- Quaitemp, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11There is already a default search engine for 'w', go to Tools -> Preferences and "Search". Remove the one on 'w' (Download.com).
Visit wikipedia and right click in the search-field and choose "Create search..." - Quaitemp, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Opera Installer with mail, chat and rss-reader; 4,9MB
Firefox Installer (only): 5,7MB - nurriz, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10This was the main reason I changed to FF from Opera in the first place, and it's really the only extension I use. I'm taking this puppy for a drive :)
- daonlyfreez, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11Opera is already "light" _with_ all the features.
- DagMX, on 10/22/2007, -1/+10linkification is built into opera. Select some text(double click on a plain text link), right click and do 'go to url'. Simple.
I'll switch to opera full time myself once the final build is out. - LucasVB, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Opera can't have an ad blocker built-in, since it'd be frowned upon by a lot of website owners and sponsors. That's bad for the company. It's OK with Ad Block in Firefox because it's third-party software. But really, if you just get a big, comprehensive filter.ini file, you're pretty much set.
- howie, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11Ask at my.opera.com. Chances are that most of those extensions are possible to do in Opera anyway.
- Yazilliclick, on 10/10/2007, -1/+102,3,4,5 are not bugs.
- philry4n, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9all things feel snappier!!! o/ i love this alpha build!
- worbd, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8How do you know that you can't do it in Opera? There are lots of ways to add stuff to Opera.
- elvenseven, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Wow, I've just switched to Opera. Theres a Web Developer toolbar too AND I can make it look like Firefox / OS Native from the appearance options. The speed dial feature is really neat and theres even spell check.
http://www.opera.com/support/tutorials/opera/spellcheck/ - fractured, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Neat, the middle click scroller no longer goes to the middle of the page when you scroll. That was the only thing that bothered me from all the other versions of Opera
- frenchy64, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Its really helpful on computers (like mine :) ) who have a small amount of RAM... 12 or so tabs open and about 120mb RAM used. (I have 512mb total)
I love Opera, even though I have to live with its oddities :( Kestral is truly awesome too - Dugg01, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8i like the "Create Search" feature.!!
- phytonix, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8OMG it is fantastic! I think it is really faster on Mac now and works better with many websites, such as Plaxo and Google Calendar!
Sweet. And I have been a loyal Opera user for, I don't know, 8 years! - LucasVB, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Oh just drop it. As long as IE loses market share, we all win.
- SpacemanSpiff, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8We understand what you mean, but we don't understand your point. Even with those default add-ins the entire Opera package is still lighter (install package memory footprint, etc) than Firefox or IE.
My guess is that those add-ins are completely passive. They only load up if you use them (such as by adding an email account). This is converse to Firefox's behavior where it loads every single installed extension. - moofer, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8There is always a way to be faster. But... it's faster than anything out there. That's for sure.
- shethinkmefunny, on 10/14/2007, -1/+8Agreed. Opera is the only browser I use for Windows. Been using 9.5 for about an hour now and so far I'm very impressed with it. The rendering engine runs circles around IE and FF in terms of speed, and is even faster than 9.23, which rules. Unfortunately, the Linux version still has a ghost or two in the code and it always locks up on me, so I still use Firefox for Linux. Here's hoping 9.5 changes that :)
- squaat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Spell check has been there for quite awhile though
