    hey guys.

    Universal Binary version of Opera browser is now out.

    Just like firefox but has a few neat extra features.

    The workflow is great for powersurfing, especially if you have a mouse with a middle button.

    The middle button opens and closes new tabs, and it also has some great mouse gestures, for example hold right click and then left click is the "back" gesture.

    Just thought Id mention it. Its well worth a test drive. I love it. Oh it has built in bit torrent now too. Personally, I think it just about has the edge on Firefox.

    But I already have DeerPark, optimised just the way I like it :p
    Hmm, I might try Opera out, though.

    hehe sorry heres the link....

    lol

    Im not a browser nazi. I just cant stand safari. I like both Firefox and Opera. To me, Opera is just firefox with more features.
    It runs really fast and efficiently and there are some lovely skins and widgets availale.

    I've got every modern browser installed, including Opera, Firefox and Internet Explorer, but I keep falling back on Safari. It works great for me.

    I don't like Safari, but sometimes it comes in handy for web compatibility.

    i hate safari but use it for applets for chatrooms and poker. Hopefully they will cop on to the middle click thing some time.

    I remember using Opera for 2 years or more but switched to Firefox at some stage. Never really tried Opera after that. It was (and from what I heard still is) a great browser which introduced all the innovative new features that I find invaluable now. (mouse gesture, tabs) I almost feel guilty not using it.
