Opera is much faster. And it's not Microsoft.

Simple. IE sux, and MS is a monopoly.

read this...

it can also tile and cascade windows if you don't want to get them all aligned as tabs.

it can zoom the page like zooming in acrobat, word, etc.

it can use all Netscape's plugins.

I can turn off Javascript support easily.

you can even use author mode to override the webpage with poor coding.

and more...

Obviously, you have never tried it, or didn't spent much time to learn how to use it... because Opera easily beat IE as the best browser on Earth.

If you are complaining that Opera doesn't render DHTML properly, or some other display issues... that's because some programmers don't check the crossbrowsing issues. In addition, MS implements non-standard programming tricks help to create problems too... about IE is better (in displaying buggy webpages). The rare display issues can be resolved by using IE and Netscape just for those New Media Agencies' websites or very high-end websites. Most of the websites can be view by Opera with no problem.

I'm talking about it can actually increase your productivity significantly even if you have to occassionally use IE to read some high-end websites.
