KotaXor Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Opera Turbo is a new server-side optimization and compression technology that provides significant improvements in browsing speeds over limited-bandwidth connections by compressing network traffic. This does not only make you surf faster, but also lowers the cost of browsing when you are on a pay per usage plan.Today Opera team has released a preview version of Opera 10 which contains this new "Opera Turbo" technology. When turned on, Opera Turbo will display the average compression rate. Hover your mouse over the Opera Turbo icon to see a tooltip with the amount of bandwidth saved as long as it has been enabled.Home pageHmmmm, should I be using Opera?

Atasas Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Or should it rather be Opera- (9.64 int and eng; apha10.0; alpha turbo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marik Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 well at first I was going to replace the English link with the int one..and let the user just chose his lang, and replace the old alpha version with the turbo one...but I don't know if the turbo ed is the normal alpha, but with the turbo upgrade incorporated....so I dragged out the listing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KilJaden Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 To put is short latest alpha build is 1345 but Opera Turbo 10.0 is Build 1355 , and it's nothing than a renamed the regular alpha build into Opera Turbo , it's just a regular alpha build. precursor of the desktop build. Opera Turbo will be part of future desktop versionsThis is a time-limited release, but the feedback we receive from this test release will help us determine how and when to move forward with Opera Turbo.They just renamed the regular alpha build into Opera Turbo , to make people try the new feature, so it's not a new product just a renamed alpha.

Valette Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Didn't like it at all, 90% of the pages I tested came out all messy, even turning turbo off. I used to like Opera but now Firefox is just too hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atasas Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yep1 not brilliant, had to switch turbo off- worked flawless. Cant report an error to opera as without turbo (as expected) all is well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valette Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Don't get me wrong Atasas, i really like opera, at the moment it's my second choice, i'm not trying to bash your post, infact i got excited because i don't care most of the time how images appear, i don't note them anyways, well pr0n pics sometimes, but i noted some annoying errors in this version. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
