One word...

FIREFOX.

I found Opera's lay-out/GUI about as arcane as Egyptian heiroglyphics and Ebonics with some Trig thrown in.

IMO...Junk.

Opera

My Score:


One word: BIAS

There is no chance in the world that Opera realistically deserves those ratings. Open your Firefoxeye.

Installation is the fastest I''ve seen...
Page rendering is the fastest around (faster even than LYNX, yes that command line browser.

Now if you personally have a dislike, don''t bring that in here, and in a rating, to rate something it means you''ve examined both contestans equally.

Personally I do faster surfing (speed and usage-wise) with Opera, whenever I use firefox, I''m bugged down a lot.
Opera is the only browser with really integrated tabbed browsing, you can open pages and move around so fast.

I just wonder, how long did you use Opera for? Did you BOTHER to learn any mouse gestures and or keyboard shortcuts?
