Damn... I just wrote up a nice review and I accidentally closed the window LOL...

In any case the hotlist has totally been revamped -- it teels like a total rewrite and I have no complaints -- the interface is NICE and clean but very pretty. The "Links" tab extracts links from any page -- just type "mpg" to extract all the movie links from a page -- arrow-select and bam you are downloading all of them at once... Now you can leech any page all in one shot -- Opera patiently downloads even from slow servers in the background -- you never have to wait for the "Save-As" window to pop up... This handy feature and the quick-access history tab I think will be very useful to me now... The email interface has been re-written -- now it has filters...

And of course there's the handy F12 button -- turn off/on popups, hahahahahahahahahaha, referrers, etc... identify yourself as Opera, Mozilla or MSIE -- default is still MSIE 6.0

I could go on and on, but it's worth a shot just to try it (Opera.com) -- of course you still have Windows explorer on your machine -- it's not going anywhere... but Opera is just faster, tighter code, and you're not treated like a newb -- this is a browser for people that think... MSIE is for the layperson...
