@Ze: Opera doesnt need Addons, cos it has a whole wealth of features OOtB. But if you really want some plugins, then install what Opera calls Widgets. Dont bother comparing them with the FF addons.
Hmm thats hardly an argument. No such thing as "whole wealth of features OOtB" Opera simply cannot cover all the bases. Just looking at my current FF plugins, I have:
1-Noscript
2-Adblock
3-Autopager (don't need to click on next page on the forum, it just automatically loads the next page under the current page when I reach the end)
4-Feedly (an amazing magazine style rss reader synced with gReader)
5-Shareaholic (sharing pages with like 30 different websites FB, Twitter...etc)
6-Greasemonkey
7-Digg toolbar (tells me how many diggs each website has)
8-Better Gmail (enhances Gmail)
9-Firebug

OOtB you say?

But I am glad there is interest in Opera, it is still a solid browser, has always been my secondary browser (until Chromium jumped in), but I always have the latest version installed.

Btw guys, you really should give Chromium a shot, it has really matured on Linux, fast and stable.

All this discussion about FF alternatives made me realize how many browsers I have installed right now: FF, Chromium, Chrome (official Google build), Opera, Midori, Konqueror, IE6 on wine, IE7 on wine, and Lynx :D

Opera is great but needs a "plugin" so I can download porn automatically. :shifty:

Testing 10.XX right now,all works smooth,even croatian betting sites that are usually very demanding for browsers to handle. Some forums take time to load all avatars and some objects but that's a common thing in Opera. Google search time is the fastest I've seen so far. But two things that are the most important still bother me and i can't go over it and these are: NO or bad gmail notifier and lack of suggestions while doing a quicksearch in right upper mini-window. Stuck with FF once more :)

You can might as well subscribe to your Gmail through RSS, which is built into the browser.

EDIT: No. No need to press Refresh. It'll do it automatically for you. Besides, i just sent a test mail to myself, and Opera mail notified me earlier than Gmail Notifier! :pumpkin:

Ok we were having a coffee today at work and a colleague asked me about my Faecbook status that I had on Saturday, it was Opera 10. So I described how good it was and he said he'll give it a try. A third colleague threw a question that left me paralyzed. Never in my life I felt so much out of words and the biggest challenge was how to start, so I opted not to reply at all. You are all eager to know what the question was, well here goes:


What's wrong with IE?
