New Opera browser

never tried opera, i'll give it a shot, although i'll probably stick with firefox

 

I will try Opera browser

 

I've been using it now for a few days and think it is a definite winner. Changed back to Opera

 

opera always fast

 

I am Opera user for 2-3 years now, but the new version of opera hangs up sometimes

 

I think that's normal. FireFox 3 also has its bugs and hangs up sometimes as well.

 

Ya I converted from Firefox 3 to Opera, it has way more cool features and it seems faster too.

 

I haven't experienced that yet (Linux version).

 

Firefox is faster than Oprea

 

can you prove it?

 

Sorry, just not true....

 

Firefox 3 is the faster rendering browser now. Do a search for it as I don't have it on me now. I read an article the other day. I was surprised as Opera is great, but until them come up with a good built in adblocker that gets rid of the white area left over by the ads, get a firebug alternative, a MoneyQuake alternative, a built in gmail notifier, search seo add on, I will not use it.

Firefox has become a monster for me that I can't NOT hang with!!

 

Oh no I am not a browser specialist.
I use both Firefox & Opera ( most of the time Firefox ).
I think Firefox is safe,secure and faster.
Still I prefer Firefox

 

i thought ff3 claimed they were the fastest? has Opera now released an even faster browser? lol

 

Well I don't know about Firefox 3 but Opera is better and faster then other browser which I used so far and I am using it since long time. I had no problem and speed is excellent for me. There is no need to reload on back button which I we have to do in IE.

Opera is also better for Torrent lover since no need to download Torrent software which is feature of Opera.

 

Update: I just turned on my Windows the other day, and unfortunately, I have to confirm it - the Windows Opera tends to freeze :/

 

nice, is it good for dial up user's? i'll see and tell ya lol

 

Opera is faster than FF but this will only make a big difference for users using Dial-up. On broadband the extra speed isn't really that significant.

I still prefer Opera over FF becasue it is a better product in my opinion.

 

Opera is a good mix of IE and FF together. I like the browser but always find it hard to leave FireFox for good. I've been using it so long that I'm use to it. One thing I am thinking about is moving from FF3 back to FF2.

 

after opera 9.5 had bunch of small bugs
finally 9.51 is released with most issues solved.
It is strongly recomended for Opera users to update to new version.
