    opera not supported...

    I went to Macromedia.com was just looking around their tutorial section when I was stopped with this message:
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    Please Use a Supported Browser Your browser (Opera) is not supported by macromedia.com. For the best possible experience, please use the latest version of one of the following browsers:

    Microsoft Internet Explorer - Netscape Navigator - Mozilla - AOL
    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    I guess I dont mind using another browser but I thought it was a bit strange to have a (the) major internet related company not supporting Opera. I mean its not a no-name like "joe's browser" or anything (or is it ).

    Somewhere it said they were only supporting the latest guidelines/specs or something like that. Opera isn't up to spec.

    The all new ALl Flash MM Website runs incredibly slow with the Opera and KHTML Based browsers ( Safari is KHTML based not Moz Based).

    The Flash Plugin Drags and Drags and crashes the m,achine in these browsers. Honestly the NS Plugin with NS 7.X/ Moz based browsers doesn't do much better. The result is the page loads but it is very very very slow.

    Please Use a Supported Browser

    Your browser (Netscape 6) is not supported by macromedia.com. For the best possible experience, please use the latest version of one of the following browsers:

    Microsoft Internet Explorer >

    NS Logo Netscape Navigator >

    Mozilla Logo Mozilla >

    AOL Logo AOL >
    Is what I get when visiting with K-Meleon. KMeleon is Mozilla Based. I have it telling people that its NS 6 or IE 6 so that they don't lock me out... Aprently NS 6 isn't good enogh for MM.
