9.50 Build 9523 Alpha 2 (Sep 16, 2007)
I would give this piece of software 9/10 Stars, but unfortunately there are only 5 stars ;)
It's IS definately the fastest, most secure, most compliant and overall best browser on the world.
And I'm not a fan boy! I go and use only the best sofwares, regardless of price and company name.
And Opera is FREE & HOT!
As Developer I can do whatever I want, and NOTHING slows me down, except the EXTRA Stylesheets for "Internet Explorer 5-7", because IE is just crap! And Firefox is not optimized for Windows, it is and will stay a LINUX BROWSER!

9.23 Build 8805 Beta (Aug 3, 2007)
Advantages:
- very fast load times
- very secure + antiphising
- best rendering engine on the market
- ntlm support
- 9.25 gonna support full CSS3, know you can be yealous
Disadvantages:
- some bad coded websites don't work in Opera
- some old javascripts exclude Opera, due to browser sniffing
sorry I can't find any other bad things
I'm honest and tell you the truth:
Opera is the only browser that passes the ACID2 test, even Firefox 3 Alpha doesn't pass it.
Oh, for the IE fans: "You still don't pass, sorry guys.."
Opera was commercial in the past and it was revolutionairy, it didn't had the bugs other browser had. But it other weird bugs that were annoying.
However they learned from the past and made the most secure and fastest browser in the world.
There are very very rare moments when I encounter problems while developing websites with Opera, much less than Firefox and yes not comparable with any IE.
But I'm pretty sure you'll not see any rendering errors anytime while developing websites in Opera.
As one reviewer before me I just can acknowledge what my betanews collegues said:
"I am very pleased by the improvements made recently, and I cant wait to get my hands on the 9.5 betas..."
3.0.3 Beta (Aug 3, 2007)
It has potency, but it isn't using it.
It's not a final product, there are so many bugs.
Why don't you integrate a bugreport service as steam did?
However I as developer find this tool is not worth to replace my Opera or Firefox.
I wish there was no bugs, but it is like it is.
Bad Product apple ;)
Hey but your still better than Microsoft *thumbs up* don't give up.
1.7.2 (May 6, 2007)
Tried it years ago...a little more complicated than other messanger but I think it's worth the effort.
Make it a Miranda Plugin and I'll use it 24/7!
But no need for another messenger for me personally.
9.10 Build 8666 Beta (Dec 1, 2006)
I'm a programmer and I need many browsers, but Opera is my favorite one.
This is not due to any technical specs, speed or any other gimmick, it is Opera's philosophy.
Opera is very w3c conform and strict, and it's nice to disabled people.

NOT SUPPORTING the greatest standard compliant browser Opera. Microsoft and Firefox seem to sleep in one bed now.. ughh...
In my opinion: AJAX for the lazy.

Seems as if the "Big man" starts listening to the "Small man" and adds more communicative technologies to it's products.

I love Opera, but Its Rendering Engine is not perfect at time. I think ALL browser developers should work much closer with W3 Adobe(&Macromedia) and other standard "trend-setters".
The poorest thing on all browsers is that implementation of even HTML is NOT interpreted like the STANDARD defines them, where XHTML 1.1 is already out.
All browsers MUST show same result when a page is "VALID" without browserhacks..
CSS1 is still not perfectly interpreted.. CSS2 is really annoying buggy impplemented and unsupported but CSS3 which comes .. should finally solve the problems and make us Web-Designers more happy ;)
I should concentrate more on rendering and security because the interface is already standardized by FireFox and platinized by Opera.
I hope so.. ms go on but don't rule the world others are b****in' for free =)
