Opera 10 brings up new tricks
9/1/2009 by: Theo Valich

If we face the facts, the Nordic browser is without any doubt, the underdog in Browser Wars. Microsoft and Mozilla are trading blows at each other, Safari is nibbling away the market share thanks to the success of the iPhone - and Opera is staying put.

In all of my years as a tech journalist, I was always glad to try out the last version of Opera - but I would often leave it as some pages didn't render quite well, some HTML standards didn't pass, some XHTML CMS editors had missing features [workable in other browsers] and in the end - it just didn't pass the mustard.

But with Opera 10.00, Opera Networks is hoping to capture more than just 2.04% of worldwide browser market [info provided by Net Applications]. Opera 10.00 scores 100/100 on Acid3 test and certainly packs a punch in Futuremark's Peacekeeper benchmark. Given that the Opera download is free [alternate download link: Download.com], we gave it another run and by some surprise, all of the XHTML features we use in our CMS work just like in Firefox or IE8.

I tried it.   The appearance reminds of a bridge of an Imperial Stardestroyer.   Heavy, grey steel.

You may fire when ready.


There's what you love to do, and then there's what you get paid to do.  Those two things are often different.

That would be iCab.

Re: Opera 10.0 out

Opera is one of the best browser in the internet world. As compare to the other browsers. It has alot of distinguishing characters and features. The best one is that it saves all the data being opened. My friends Christine Freville, Mickey Everio and Junio Solihull been using other browsers since 20th April 2000. But they are in love with new version opera 10.0 now a days.
