I have a few random crashes with Opera here and there, mostly with Java stuff, though.

I don't use FF enough to notice any crashes.

I don't use IE, but it still crashes. Sad

A strange man walks up to me in the saloon, when I'm working, and asks me to marry him; and I say, "I cannot marry thee, for I have a love who sails the deep, salt seas; and though he's been gone these seven years, no man shall marry me; for what if he has died, or in some battle slain; or drowned in the deep salt sea; or found another love; and he and his new love both married be? If that is so, I wish them both health and happiness that burns across the sea." He looks at me and kisses me and says, "Weep no more, my own true love, for I am your long-lost love."

I was using Firefox as a back-up for some time. When Opera had a major page incompatibility, I would just go to FF view. Firefox is not a bad browser, but there are a couple of nitpicks I have that prevent me from using it on a permenant basis: Bloated interface, as opposed to utilizing the system's native API; Gecko is not as accurate as WebKit. Firefox memory usage can go into an excess of some 150 MB at times, and my system is only running on 512 MB RAM.

Though it is not necessary a problem with Firefox itself, Firefox's popularity also contributes to some of its security risks. You will notice that some sites detect Firefox, and attempt to override some of your extensions. (such as Ad-Block) This has happened to me on a few ocassions.

Yeah true, altough I think Firefox team is doing a much better job than Microsoft at patching those security holes. It still has much less than IE. I am sure Opera has a lot too, but since it has a much smaller userbase trolls won't attack Opera users.

Blah. I switched back to Opera; but I did update to the latest version. It turns out that it passes the Acid3 test with perfect accuracy. (although, I kind of question the methodology of that test, as it uses really obscure standards)

I kind of like the new interface, but the memory footprint is insane. I'm pushing 100 MB just browsing Omnimaga. Tongue

I don't like the new Opera skin much. I just use Opera Classic 9 updated for 10.51, and I made the menu bar show up by default.

I'm still tweaking my interface, but I like what I have so far...



I had to add a number of custom buttons to extend the functionality.
