Samurai Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Well this isn't the first company to do this, and probably won't be the last.Aside from the fact of being very generous, it will obviously generate a lot of publicity, which is always a good thing.

Guest volko Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I love cashing in on free stuff like that. Thankyou Opera. To celebrate - today I'm using opera. Gaaah - it sucks. I'm going back to firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vin3e Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I actually asked around whether i should switch to opera, because everyone in the other forums boasted about how fast it was.I didnt want to change because apart from "its better", i couldnt make a decision, hwo much ram it uses (192ram here) how about the lovely grease monkey like extensions? i dont like clogged up screens, i prefer mroe fresh and empty screens etc etc.Can anyone shed some light about the difference between the 2 and which one is probably better (apart from speed). :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Lite Posted September 1, 2005 Administrator Share Posted September 1, 2005 Opera should use less resouces due to it using native windows code.Try it, you've nothing to loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vin3e Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 But i dont want to lose my nifty extensions :unsure: Although i dont visit geocities and rapidshare that much, it feels good to have something that can help me get through hehe.As for using less ram, i guess i'll give it a try... anyone here using opera?

Administrator Lite Posted September 1, 2005 Administrator Share Posted September 1, 2005 Me :unsure: . But i other browsers installed and also use them (IE and firefox).Opera has loads of firefox's extenions features "out of the box". You can install opera and use it alongside firefox, that way you won't loose anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
