Who uses the Opera browser?

[Bojo]

And is it any good. Like are there some things it has problems with.

I use Opera and every once in a while it will crash or display something funny, but it does that much less then Netscape or IE did for me. I really like it, the Windows version is now Freeware btw.

Been using Opera since v2.12 because it comes to closest to w3's open standards. Will rarely stumble on web sites, and then only because of IE's proprietary code (Microsoft's way or no way). Best feature: button on bottom of browser's window to toggle on/off loading of mindless graphics and banners!

I have been using Opera for the past 3 years on and off. But now Opera is ready for primetime. So i use it as my default web browser.

I use it (right now ) and I am very happy with it. It's extremely fast, surfing with several windows at once is far easier than with IE or Netscape, and the keyboard controls rule.
Of course it does crash sometimes, but unlike IE it doesn't take the system with it and a new 5.0 feature makes recovering form the crash quite easy (it 'remembers' which URLs you surfed on when you crashed).
There are some problems with sites that use code which use MS proprietary code, but for those occasions I still have IE5 installed.

It is now my default browser, I love it, much faster than IE or Mozilla, now if they would just make the BeOS version free.

Fast, small download, and no properiarity BS.
