Everytime I see so little respect for my favorite piece of software (Opera) I get angry. I don't know why the loadtime for HTML is that high according to Apple, but if you look at JavaScript and Applicatopn launch, you can see that Opera is still pretty damn fast. Yes Apple did a great job with Safari 3, but nothing can replace Opera for me. I didn’t want to say “oh, Feirefox got it for months and opera got it for years!”, but i have to.

Its only just got a bunch of features that have been in Firefox for months - and people start getting over-excited. The extensions for safari are nowhere near Firefox (Firebug anyone?) and that by far out-weighs the load time being a bit slow. Oh yeh, I remember one point for safari.. It looks nice. Hmmm.

The ability to re-arrange tabs, saving a default session, warning before it closes open tabs, etc. Although features like in-line PDF controls and resizeable textboxes are a nice touch.

Google 'I'm feeling Lucky' in the address bar. I use i constantly. Best time saving feature ever!
