    If someone tells you it can't be done,
    it's probally because they don't know how.

    I only use opera on the Wii. Right now firefox's extensibility makes it a clear leader. There's really no comparable browser imo.

    I admit... I lol'd heartily.

    I use it occasionally to test; however if it's not Firefox, it's Chrome for me.

    The word "it" in my sentence refers to Opera; which I use for testing occasionally.

    Being corrected by you about my English is rather hilarious. Don't attempt it again.

    I cease to be amazed how every straightfoward question in this place
    turns to an unrelated slaging match....


    I suppose somethings will never change..

    Opera's a good browser, it just gets no love. If it used Gecko or Webkit, it wouldn't be such a hassle for developers. (It's the only one that does things 100% "right" according to the W3C, or closest to that.) Unfortunately, most developers don't bother testing for it, and supporting it typically means some extra work on top of IE workarounds, so it gets ignored. Firefox is the developer favorite because of the extensions available.

    How poorly supported is it?

    Opera recently bought a ton of new servers, and the web control panel locks out the Opera browser. Link: Most expensive javascript ever?

    If it were possible I'd ban you to the random thoughts thread.

    I've been contemplating just moving each post by that person into the Random Thoughts thread... they'd fit.
