Opera 9.0 finally released!

[Atealtha]

Opera (http://opera.com) is perhaps the best browser out there right now. The shortcut keys and usability is far better than Firefox's. If you ignored trying out the Firefox 2.0 alpha (http://forums.yellowworld.org/showthread.php?p=476522) but still want to try something new, give Opera a shot.

I'm running 9 beta, what's the diff with this one and the release version?

[Atealtha]

Well it sure crashes a lot less.
I'll admit, I already had the "stable" release of Opera crash once. But the user experience is so damn good that I still keep on using Opera.

Also, I remember in the beta that it displayed gif files faster with every loop. I think they solved that problem.

I cannot believe they mapped ctrl-N to open a new window, instead of the old-fashioned new tab, this change is too much for me, I've switched back to 8.54.

Fookin A, man!

Hold right click and use the middle scroll.

Opera is the shit!

And I actually like them putting the new tab shortcut to CTRL+T. Feels firefoxy.

I tried Opera 9.0 but I don't think I'll keep it. I don't find as many badly rendered pages with Firefox. Opera is definitely fast but it's not worth the poor formatting on certain badly-coded sites. I also have an easier time with plug-ins.

opera>firefox>safari
