Has some nice features, and is pretty fast. However, for the time being, stick with Firefox.

Pity Opera doesn''t have the features that I can add in firefox. That is what makes the difference, my Opera obessed friend.

Don''t get me wrong, Opera is great, but it''s not good for beginners either, way too complicated.

Has for those of us who are ahem beyond beginners, being able to use and modify firefox extensions rocks!

>Nobody else can beat that so far... But keep trying firefox ;)

Can you really expect objectivity from someone who uses the alias Opera ? I thought so. :)

I love Opera. It''s fast, light and user-friendly. Considering the amount of time I spend surfing online, and the amount of data I collect during that time, I find its Copy to Note feature indispensible. I''m not as wild about their built-in mail client -- I prefer better organization since I have almost a dozen different email accounts -- but that''s a small price to pay for one of the most secure browsers available.

Firefox has some nice, not so original features (Opera basically invented those (integr mail,irc,rss - tabs, high customization). But for the time being stick with Opera.

Why? Opera has those features in its core NOT as plugins. Think about it, which code would be executed faster and cleaner? Opera is tiny in size, with clean compact code, while even Firefox in compare looks like bloatware. In THIS much size, you have all you need for the web. Nobody else can beat that so far... But keep trying firefox ;)
