Opera is by far the best browser available. It beats IE, Mozilla/Firebird easily. It's faster smaller, has more features and settings than any other. More importantly it handles almost every site perfectly and is 100% stable. If you haven't used Opera lately you should check out the latest v7.23

What makes Opera so good is all thoose little features that makes surfing so much easier, like mouse gestures, fast-forward, browser-tabs, magic wand etc. In fact a port of Opera would be the only thing required for me to throw out my Wintel box and use AOS for everything.

I would gladly pay US$100 and more for a working port of Opera. Preferably Hyperion should make a port and include it with AOS maybe raising the price for AOS v4 with US$50 or something to cover the costs.

@Kronos

Yes, that's probably true. Anyway my point was that raising the price of AOS a bit and include Opera would be a nice way to go.

Porting Opera which not only is the best browser in the market would give AmigaOS some attetion as well. It would also be easier to raise the price of AOS if including Opera since alot of people expect a Firebird/Mozilla port to be free. Besides Firebird/Mozilla is simply not as good as Opera.
