Opera Software Yet another review of Opera 9. "There is a lot more to this feature rich, standards compliant web browser and each day I find new ways of using Opera to heighten my browsing comforts. Definitely the developers of Firefox - another web browser that I am really fond of - can imbibe a couple of the path breaking features found in Opera."

9 final has issues though

at least for me - a lot of sites just refuse to open, it's extremely unstable and buggy - so bad I'd think I was using firefox (which has to be the most unstable and buggy crap I've ever used). You read up on Opera's forums and you'll see a LOT of people having problems, many of whom had no issues in the beta.

Case in point, I ended up going BACK to the Opera 9 Beta, build 8414 becuase I had no problems at all in that version.

Begs the question, how do you break so many things between the last public beta and the final?

I'm keeping a beady eye on the forums, too. At present I'm using Opera 8.54, without any problems whatsoever. Ever since I started using it, this March, I remain impressed by the speed of this browser and all the customizability options it presents you with. When the so-called 'Final' of Opera 9 was released, I was amazed - I had been following the whole beta saga, and had the impression 9 was simply not mature enough, there were still too many bugs, to be given to the world as a finished product. And I was not the only one. Since then, as I said, I'm keeping a beady eye on the forums. I will only 'upgrade' when this final really IS final.
