Too bad for good

Seriously, I'm a little ticked right now. I have just rediscovered the best browser out there. The last time I tried Opera, it was an extremely fast browser with an interface that was just too annoying. Now, Opera is, in my opinion, the best designed browser out there (except for maybe Safari :) ). Compared to Firefox, it's faster (for both loading time and render speeds), it's better looking, has more features, and it's kind of fun to use.

However, it is not replacing Firefox as my main browser, and this is why I'm ticked off. It just doesn't have the support that Firefox does. Gmail doesn't fully support it, I can't seem to get into the login page for Writely with it, Blogger even seems to mess up in it. So I guess it, once again, will get deleted from my computer, except this time, I will really mourn it's passing. :(

W00T! Good comments on Opera, I can't wait to install it. =P Sucks though about the compatibility thing you mentioned. Hopefully it'll become more noticed.

They have a Solaris/Sparc build! Downloading now! :-)

Actually, I was just about to decide to use it in conjunction with Firefox until I tried it with Gmail and found that it wasn't even fully supported by Gmail. I'm a little sad with Google now.

Hmm, no GMail support is going to suck. Guess I'll still have to mosey over to IE at times. Oh well.
