Why I choose the Opera browser

I'm on Linux and I've just always loved Opera because it's so fast. However, at one point I tried out Firefox. It just didn't cut it. For about a month or so it was good, except that it wasn't as fast as Opera was, and I had to separately launch Thunderbird to check my email. I could live with that, though. I used, like, version 0.7. Then, 0.8 came out. All my extensions broke, so I switched back to Opera. The extensions thing just pissed me off so much (no mouse gestures!), I had to come back. Now, I don't regret switching back to Opera at all. Opera 9 is just so impressive. If Opera and Firefox were to wrestle, Opera would throw Firefox on the ground and stomp all over it. That's how much better Opera is.

Oh, and I'm not even getting into IE ;-)
