-NOT- trying to start a browser war, just trying to spread the news. Opera 9 technology preview 2 is now out:
http://labs.opera.com/news/2006/02/07/2/
As a user of both firefox and opera, I can say that this one's done pretty well. Leaving a small footprint, and having a slight edge in speed is one of the characteristics that got carried over from the previous version.
It's got a few upgrades such as Bittorrent, an imrpoved RSS reader, and a better popup blocker.
But...all I can say is that this has a much more firefoxy feel. Control + Enter actually works this time around, and pages that never loaded before in opera finally start loading (my outlook webaccess exchange mail, for example). This time around, though, opera gets extensions.
It's worth a look.
