Why not? at least for comparison?


What does Opera do differently, or better, then Firefox?

I've never said Opera was bad, but I will say that back
when IE6 was officially ****-canned by web developers (2006
give or take) Firefox was the only viable alternative - at
least for win-98 users. I've just stuck with it.


(I keep on forgetting to reinstate my KF.)

Opera has been around for nearly 10 years, IIRC, and was the
first browser to offer tabs and an /intelligent/ customizable
interface.

You people that have put up with IE6 up until maybe 6
months to a year ago as your primary browser and decided to
go straight to Opera - well good for you. I don't know why
you think it's the hottest **** since sliced bread.


You should try it and /then/ speak.
