370399 2005-07-08 01:17:00 Opera has released a technical preview of the very good browser that incorporates a bittorrent client. The announcement is here (www.opera.com).

I guess a Firefox plugin won't be far away or already exists, but for those who have never tried Opera, I highly recommend it. Opera 8 is the latest stable. Security credentials can be found at Secunia (www.secunia.com).

By the way, isn't Microsoft thinking of including... wait for it... tabbed browsing(!!!) in IE in the future? That's after they incorporate HotBar and Gator of course...

Unfortunately, I only track stable releases so I guess I will have to wait .

Looks and goes OK? I thought I read somewhere that they were releasing it via torrent .

my.opera.com

It says not to install over a previous version of Opera. BUT I did and it works fine. I'm using it to post this.

There's no diff in what it looks like, from the previous versions.
