can I replace Speed Dial with 'Home page'?

I never use Spee dial.
I'm used to close tabs with keyboard shortcuts.
When I close my 'last tab' Opera shows Speed dial - I'd prefer having my 'Home page' instead.
Is there a way to tweak Opera?

Home Drag the link to the pagebar floating toolbar next to the New tab button. Delete the new tab button.

well, perhaps I wasn't clear enough.

I rarely use my mouse. I'm the keyboard-type, that's why I LOVE Opera.
I set 'F1' key to close tabs; when 10 tabs open that I don't need anymore I keep pressing 'F1' and everything gets closed.
After 0,5-1sec all my tabs are closed - and I'm left with Speed dial (or a blank page if Speed Dial State = 3).
I don't like Speed Dial and I don't like blank page.
I'd prefer having my 'Homepage' now.
Any ideas?

If you're a keyboard person, then assign a keyboard shortcut to do this all at once. Ctrl W is the default for close page, so try:

W Ctrl Shift = Close all & Go to homepage
