i use opera on about 5 different machines
1.3Ghz Athlon 768MB ram
P3-733Mhz 512MB ram
P3-700Mhz 256MB ram (laptop)
Sun Ultra 1 167Mhz 512MB ram
P3-800Mhz 1024MB ram
it runs good. i like it. i paid for 2 copies. worth
it. there are some sites it doesnt work on, e.g. it
can't do HTTPS uploads and it can't keep session on
some web apps i use, so i switch to netscape 4.76
for that.
i think its a great browser. a big plus is its
statically linked with qt so i dont have to have all
kinds of support packages installed to go with it.
and the auto recovery feature is good, i can close
it and re open it (or if it crashes) it can re open
all the urls i was just at.
fast too ...!
just as good on an overpowered machine as an
underpowered one.
