Opera is rapidely becoming an aggressive competitor to IE!

Several years ago (when netscape was still the number one browser on the Internet), IE took over because it was:

- Faster
- More compatible
- Distributed in every machine

Opera is going up rapidely, because of the same reasons!

They just need to strike a deal with google now, to be the official browser of their new OS!

The difference being they jump on any vulnerabilities instantly and get a fix out quick.

Ultimately we all know no system is 100% invincible.

Nice....and damn fast !

DamnGoodRatio · 08-05-2004, 08:08 PM

How is the speed compared to Firefox?

I was a huge opera user until the third or so release back. I'd have a few tgp pages, some gfy pages and some news open and the thing would crash. Does it do that now?

I've been switching to Firefox a lot more recently since it works with most websites that Opera doesn't. For example, you can't use Gmail with Opera.
