Using 9.50 these days. Better than the current stable release though, also performs better in Acidtest 3. BTW I am moreover satisfied with FF3b5, it is fast as a falcon. :D

I think that opera is sort of "Jack of all tread" thing. So using it is not a big deal for me. And there are some real compatibility problems with some webpages with Opera while FF enjoys more freedom. I also like the OSS nature of FF. When Opera will fix it's annoying issues and will support plugins, then and only then I will start using opera as a primary browsers. Till then FF rocks..... :D

Thanks for update.
Opera is a great browser,but developers do not design their sites taking opera in account.
Opera rocks !!!

OSS means Open Source Software and Opera is not one of them. :???: While Firefox is a OSS by birth. :D

Does this version too have the flash issue on Linux.? I am using Opera 9.50b since none of the versions till 9.26 were able to handle flash properly on linux.
