  1. Review - Opera for Windows

    10.10 Build 1833 Beta 1 (Oct 15, 2009)

    @bittermann

    "There you have it...Betanew's own browser tests show that Opera is getting slower and buggier."

    Huh? It shows no such thing. It says nothing about "bugs" (although it is a beta), and it actually shows a slight performance improvement if you look at the numbers. And that is despite the fact that 10.10 was never supposed to be focused on performance in the first place.

    Lastly, BetaNews's test is completely useless and filled with garbage like the irrelevant artificial JS benchmarks that are specifically optimized for Safari or Chrome.

  2. Review - Opera for Windows

    "I don't like the way it takes over bit torrents, email and images."

    Um, what? It doesn't take over anything. In fact, it specifically asks you whether you want to use Opera or a different client when you click an email or torrent link.

    Images? It doesn't set itself as the default image viewer.

    "RAM use - lower = better"

    This is a fallacy. Using more memory is not necessarily bad.

    Not remembering the zoom is a serious showstopper? LOL.

    They don't need a better browser than Chrome (whether it is or not is a matter of opinion, you moron).

    They need an advertising monopoly like the one Google has. Without it, they simply can't compete.

    Actually, Chrome is a much bigger download than Opera, and uses a lot more memory due to the multiprocess design.
