Opera is good at math

In his CSS Warrior blog, George Chavchanidze talks about Opera 9.0tp2 being:

the first browser that managed to handle CSS version of torture and stress tests intended to check whether level of CSS support in rendering engine is sufficient to format complex mathematical formulae in XML×CSS publishing framework.

Or put more simply, Opera is really good at displaying math.

Be sure to check out the CSS tests that George linked to. I tried the same tests using Firefox 1.5.0.1, and there is a big difference indeed.
