| 561779 | 2007-06-23 03:35:00 | Hot on the heels of the (currently) buggy Safari-for-Windows-beta and Firefox 3.0 beta, Opera will shortly be releasing version 9.5 (beta) - code-named 'Kestrel' and they claim this will be the first browser to fully support the CSS selector test. Link here (my.opera.com). "Apart from being the best standard compliant browser, Opera 9.5 will also display even more webpages with bad coding" They also claim increased performance, better multi-platform support and a user interface more aligned with other browsers (not sure whether that's a positive or not??? :) ) Anyway, I for one am glad they're not sitting on their laurels and I am looking forward to the final release... Disclaimer - I have IE7, Firefox 2.0, Opera 9.2, and Netscape 8.1 (yuk!) installed (and will download and install Safari when they iron out the bugs). I use all of these browsers on various occasions - they all have their pros and cons - but my default browser is Opera... |

| 561783 | 2007-06-23 12:32:00 | But among all Mozilla still is the best right?Only for uber-leet people like yourself. Oh wait, its free isn't it. No uber-leetness downloading it then is there? Back on topic, I might actually check Opera for linux out when it comes available (if it isn't already) |

| 561785 | 2007-06-23 23:59:00 | I've always thought Opera was the better browser (by far in same areas) but somehow the UI always rubbed me the wrong way. I know it's got the standard skinnable action going on but it always felt like Opera. Just weird. I still can't believe how much they have going on inside that little browser OOTB and still being a quick little app. I do hope I find there is a noticeable "UI more aligned with other browsers (that aren't IE)" although the screenshot showing CSS3 support in Opera 9.5 just looks like Opera 9, 8, 7... |

I know other versions are available on Linux (I'm currently giving 9.2 a whirl) |

| 561787 | 2007-06-24 01:27:00 | Opera would be better than firefox if it had 0 effort ad blocking like the adblock extension brings to firefox | Greven (91) | ||
| 561788 | 2007-06-24 03:30:00 | I have been doing a lot of programming in js and php recently, and firefox is absolutly awesome with some amazing development tools . But in the day to day web usages, Opera is still tops, I really like the speed dial setup as well . |
