  • Should I upgrade to Opera 7?

    Right now, I'm running Opera 6.05. There's a beta of version 7 out, but I've heard some negative stuff about it. Should I upgrade, or stick with 6.05?

    I've used Beta 2 for some time now and I like it. Only problem I've encountered thus far is the lack of skins but that'll improve over time. The password manager does seem a bit buggy and has crashed the browser once, but nothing else. Beta 1 had some trouble with the download manager too but Beta 2 seems to work fine.

      I'm sticking with 6.05 until they get Hebrew in 7.

        I found getting Bookmarks sorted into the order I want was a pain in the butt; maybe I'm missing something. Overall it seems very good, but I didn't see anything (yet) that made it compelling.

            I'm waiting for the final release of Opera 7.0 before getting it.
            I am content with 6.05 right now, so I'm not going to bother to upgrade for the time being.

              I downloaded 6.05 today and I absolutely love it.

              I've only been using mouse gestures for a couple of hours and already feel there is no way I could go back.

                  erm .... no.

                  when it comes out of Beta I'll probably get it, though.

                    wait for the final release. I'm using 7 and it has bugs like crazy.. but it's only beta release, I like it very much, I just wish it was more stable. Wait for the final release.

                      why is opera better than ie?
                      I have discovered that China and Spain are really one and the same country, and it's only ignorance that leads people to believe they are two seperate nations. If you don't belive me try writing 'Spain' and you'll end up writing 'China'."

                        no popups, mouse gestures, and tabs are a few reasons

                          fewer pop-ups is a good advantage. Plus they'll open in the background and won't disrupt your surfing.

                          Mouse gestures are so simple and intuitive - I wouldn't go back now.

                          Try downloading Opera 6.05. It's a small file and it's free - it can't hurt to try it.
