Why I choose the Opera browser
Didn't even know Opera existed until August 1999, when I was on vacation in Phuket, Thailand, and stayed at Connect Guesthouse there. It's owned by two Swedish guys who left the IT industry in Europe to start their hotel. I was introduced to Opera 3+ (I can't remember what version anymore...paid for it, used it for a while, but then migrated to another computer and couldn't recover the settings)..Oh well! Let's just say I really, really liked the older versions of Opera, and NOW I LOVE it. I put it back on my computer when it became freeware! It's not just the tabbing ability (which totally freaked me out 5 years ago), but also the speed!!!!! Kudos to the entire Opera team for this!
