Switched from IE and Firefox

Finally gotten around to switching my default browser to Opera.

Need a drink.

so far, I'm impressed. I miss a couple of the toolbars.. but overall, the speed and stability is pretty amazing... (firefox was taking up way too much memory and I could not be bothered playing with the tweaks that are recommended on various firefox blogs.

Is it tabbed as well? Sorry to say I did have a IE7 crash this morning with only one tab with geoexpat up. Been working the rest of the day so it is working far better than before yesterday though.

I used Opera a few years ago but had to switch back to IE for work. Which sucks.

I have downloaded Opera few times recently and used it. Pretty clean and clear. I just got too frustrated by some sites not being viewed properly.

I used to use Opera but switched to Firefox because some of my regular sites were not displaying properly. I'm now very much settled with Firefox and will only leave it for something better. What do you lot think?
