My OperaA new way to "push" Opera forward
Tuesday, December 18, 2007 5:03:47 PM
I have been able to convert an number of non-Opera users here at work
(General Dynamics), which is no small feat since there are a lot of
restrictions on what we can install.
Recently, they added a company-wide program where we are allowed to
install free programs onto our work computers, as long as we use their
special installation program. I think it's used mainly to keep track
of what is installed onto which computers, and includes their own
installation passwords.
They have FF, of course, but I was able to get them to include Opera
(9.24 at present) to the list, and I will be able to notify the person
responsible for this list whenever any newer versions are available
(just changed from 9.23). Note that there are at least 25,000
employees at this company worldwide, so hopefully it will give us at
least a little more exposure.
