Opera v7 is by far the best browser on the market. No other browser even comes close.  It's fast, small, and has loads of really handy features. The tab browsing and mouse-gestures is something I can't live without, it makes browsing so much smoother. The partial rendering (the way it starts to render the page while it's still loading it, unlike Mozilla) is by far the best of all browsers. The pop-up killer is also great. With my current setting it only opens user-requested pop-ups, and it works just great. Pop-ups are a thing of the past since I started to use Opera v7.

The adverts are just in the free version, if you register the advets will be gone. And Opera is certainly worth the small price of $39.

It would be great with a native OS4 Opera version. I would easily pay $100 for that.

With the amount of people using the web today, 5% of the people using web-browsers are quite a lot of people in numbers. Do you really want to shut out a copule of million people/potential customers just because you can't be bothered to check the site with other browsers and conform to web-standards?

It's web-designers like you that destroy any potential competion to IE beacuse you are to lazy to check that your websites work in all browsers and conforms to standards.

Websites that doesn't work in Opera (which I use as my main browser nowadays) won't get any return visits from me that's for sure. I will not start up IE just to visit one site.

When talking about how slow IE is. Just try clicking the back button to go back to your previously visited site, and then try the same thing in Opera. When hitting the back button (or the back mouse-gesture) the previous page is shown directly, but in IE it takes several seconds.
