so what are people's opinions of the old Opera?

(:

Old is just a saying, I don't mean past verisons hehe

I love opera! Ive been using it for almost a week and its fantastic
I like how when I open it, the program opens in no time :D Unlike other browsers that I will leave unmentioned.
I also like how its light on my system (FF is light, but not as light as Opera :thumbsup: )

But while were talking about opera.. does anyone know a spell checker that can be used in the browser?
And an adblocker?
Free of course ?

I love Opera too! Especially Opera 9.62. The only problem I've ever had with it was trying to get the spell checker to work on Ubuntu. Aspell at first didn't want to work so I had to install Aspell again and uninstall and reinstall Opera 9.62 for it to detect it. I'm glad it works now though!

I love Opera, I know I've already posted but hey they (Opera Software) have made some huge advancements in the past 10 months. Look at Opera Unite.

Also look at their beta too (without Unite).
