Yeah, Opera has ruled since win 3.1 days.

I used to run opera years ago on a dang 386 with 4mb ram. On that machine with win 3.1, Opera was still faster than IE was in my gf's win95 pentium box. Go figure. >;-)

Plus, designing websites for IE is a nightmare..argh.

Now, using opera 7.51 with Sun Java..it simply flies, even with multiple tabs like I have now...plus it's skinnable and totally customisable. Not to mention the abilty to switch referrers/cookies/etc with a click.

Long may IE/OE die in hell.
