1.) Free yourself from the bondage of Opera and Zorro's influence and use a real browser - Google Chrome.

2.) That's some kind of Minecraft BS.

3.) I'd better NEVER see Kid Cudi or whatever in your browser's thingy. He came to UA for a concert and only the washed masses of college students fell for that crap.

Ditto! Google chrome ftw! Less garbage on the top which gives me a larger view for web browsing on this HP Pavilion notebook (kudos, BM). I'll never use Firefox or I.E. on a laptop again.

As you can see in my wallpaper below, I have Opera, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Internet Explorer installed on my rig. Let's just put it this way - I have all the major browsers for work related purposes, and Opera is my primary browser for a reason.

I didn't ditch Opera for my typical visual tastes. It gave me major functionality problems, even with newer sites. It didn't work with hardly ANY of my school sites. Oh, and if you wanted a theme, kiss functionality goodbye.

Chrome is a fast little beast and works great.

chrome only looks fast because it breaks itself into multiple processes, its not really any faster, opera pwns, firefox only now just caught on to the speeddial startup page..even IE beat them to second place for that haha

also, i don't really care for much cudi but 2 songs.. he's got kanye on a couple tracks... = bad artist imho

and there's not a darn thing wrong with minecraft...where's ur screenshot bullet? or don't you have a desktop? (lol i know right)

BM, Opera is one of the most standards compliant (W3C) browsers out there. If certain sites don't work on it, you can blame the web developers for writing faulty JavaScript or CSS. I rarely run into sites that don't work in Opera; but if I do, I'll open up one of my other browsers to use it. Off the top of my head I can't think of any site I visit regularly that doesn't work fine in Opera. It still has by far the best password/login management tool of any browser out there, which is a huge plus for people like me.
