So when do you want Turbo?
Right now I do not need it.. Why? Well because my network connection @work is pritty good..
But last year I traveled around around in India and boy trust me I wish i had Turbo at hand back then..
Also the year before when I traveled to Thailand/Cambodia/Malaysia... Turbo is excellent when the connection is slow as sheize..

So who else would benefit fro Turbo?
Well.. What if you are on a laptop using a mobile connection? You could spare a lot of money..
So... Please test it out and remember:


How to test Opera Turbo

Not on a slow connection or out in the outback? You can still pretend to be by emulating slow network speeds following these steps:
Windows
Download and install NetLimiter 2 Pro
Run NetLimiter 2
Set the Units on the top right to KB (kilobyte)
Double-click on the Incoming limit for your user and set to “100”
Check the Limit box next to the “100”
Open Opera and enable Turbo.
Mac
Open the Terminal and type: sudo ipfw pipe 1 config bw 100KByte/s
Then type: sudo ipfw add 1 pipe 1 src-port 80
To remove the bandwidth limitation type: sudo ipfw delete 1
