Downloaded Opera 10.10 recently and want to know if any of you have experience with it (good, bad, indifferent). I know its not well supported but what else do you know? If you are going to respond about any other version, please include the version #. I am in the evaluation phase for our network so this is important.
Hah. Coyote, Opera 10.50 is out (they have a fast roadmap), and i seriously completely switched from Firefox and Chrome. It's insanely fast, not so well supported on some websites though, because it follows web standards 100% all the time, and facebook has something like oh.. 5600 (x)html errors on it. insane...) But overall it's been the fastest browser for a long long time.
In terms of Opera 10.5, it's very very customizable even more. I've got cool little icons that toggle my personal bar, auto-log me into websites, and all sorts of other stuff. Goes great with Windows 7's Aero theme and the new taskbar too. You can customize it seriously any way you want, and it has built in javascript capabilities, so if you know any JS you can modify any website however you want (or just find some scripts from Opera websites)
Here's a screenshot of my slick speed dial too ;) http://clips.rowanhenderson.com/clip_35035.png
Note: I guess the 10.5 is still beta on Linux and Mac. I'm using the dev build on my linux laptop and it's still buggy, dunno how mac would do.. Just know that good things are coming once 10.5 hits. although I do remember playing with 10.1 when it first released and i was amazed.
Kind of offtopic but how is chrome doing? Haven't used it since it's open beta and firefox just feels sluggish now, but opera isn't an option just because of all the sites I go to that their html errors would crash it to the ground lol.
Chrome is doing fine, it's getting a lot more features to make it more complete, but they're trying to keep it simple. Chrome OS is doing pretty good too, I've been checking on it.
AK Voice should be 100% XHTML Transitional valid on most pages, with the exception of a couple bugs I'm still working out. Google isn't even XHTML valid ;P
I'm going to download it now and try it. I've heard mixed reviews on it, and I always assumed it wasn't too great due to having such few users compared to other browsers.
