Opera 7

[Flimgoblin]

Tis out...
and, tis lovely.

Hopefully it won't randomly crash when I hit 'back' on BW like the RC2 did...

It supports style sheets properly and doesn't munge cookies unlike Opera 6.

Apologies if someone's already posted this (but searching didn't seem to return anythin obvious...)

That would be me then

Just testing Opera 7 now... very pretty

 

[Testin da Cable]

Just use fucking IE for shits sake.

Fucking nerdy homo lamers.

Opera 7, for the most part, is a lot better than IE.

I prefer it tbh, although I still have to use IE for some websites - the front end of game.net for one.

 

[Durzel]

It may well be better, but its not the industry standard. And the industry standard, being IE, is the primary driver for web development.

Therefore, by a process of photosynthesis (or similar) any non-industry standard browser is instantly and incontrovertibly a pile of nerdy "one in the eye for MS" wank.

Which Opera is. And Netscape.

You can't argue with that kinda logic What about people not using windows... or are they yet again, Nerdy people who're trying to get on in the eye on microsoft..... even despite the fact windows is fecking expensive compared to open source alternatives?

 

[caLLous]

A load of people don't pay for their Windows', so the price is irrelevant innit.

 

[Scooba Da Bass]

I use Phoenix, I feel so nerdy, and marginalised.

 

[Durzel]

Nerd.

Don't worry, open source software seems to be slowly but surely becoming more costly

The 468x60 advertising banner just doesn't do it for me tbh

What 468x60 advertising banner?

 

[1tchy trigger]

Pah - far too many people hide their poor web design skillz behind IE ... but then again I am a pheonix using nerd too ... nutscrape should fuck off though.

As far as I know Opera has, and has always had advertisment banners at the top of the browser.

This changed or something?

 

[leggy]

I've been using opera 7 for a couple of days and i've uninstalled already.

Looked nice but was slower than phoenix and IE.

 

[Testin da Cable]

going for phoenix myself. oh, and durz's logic is quite good, even though it's slightly flawed

If you pay for it they go away.

 

[Testin da Cable]
