Linux.com has
a review of Opera 9.5, which also includes various benchmarks for Opera, Firefox, Safari, and IE on both Windows and Linux. Linuxcom concludes:
"Opera 9.5 is full to the brim with features and improvements and highly customizable. By rolling in apps such as the mail client and IRC chat application, and integrating them into a user's browsing experience, Opera 9.5 is a worthy challenger to Firefox 3. It surely has enough power and features to make it my favorite browser. If only it were free software and open source!"

The article has a silly conclusion "if it were free and open source". Opera is free, no longer ad supported. And Open Source is meaningless if noone can be bothered looking at the code base. Even if it were free and open source, the next complaint would be "but its not GPL", "it doesn't use Qt", "it doesn't come in pink". Pathetic.
