"Great in theory, glitchy as h*ll in practice."
Version: Opera 11.01
Pros
Great interface with my multitouch trackpad; good native bookmarking/surfing functions; synched well with mobile app on my iPhone; really very nice to use.
Cons
Crashed all the damn time. Most usually when trying to view media on BBC or WSJ; there is something about embedded video that unequivocally disagrees with Opera.
Summary
Stuck with it for about three weeks and would have loved it if it had reliability been comparable with even that of Safari; as it is, I've grudgingly switched to Chrome.
-
"Lots of features"
Version: Opera 11.01
Pros
Fast and good features;
Cons
I use Google Chrome which sometimes crashes at certain sites. I looked at Opera as alternative. But Opera did not do better. eg. Opera crashed when visiting wsj.com
Summary
Google Chrome is still better so I will stick with it.

"Doesn't work on my G-4 PPC running 10.4.11"
Version: Opera 11.0
Pros
Unknown. It won't work for me and no work, no review, capish?
Cons
Contrary to what the specifications say, it doesn't work on my PPC G-4 with 10.4.11.
Summary
Once again, the marketing people don't seem to be talking to the developers. And why am I reminded of Trudy (from GPC)?
-
"Works great with all web site I accessed."
Version: Opera 11.0
Pros
load page very fast, feel of interface I love.
Cons
does all 1password connection, so I will never use it, for this reason.
Summary
Really a great browser, if you don't need 1password compatibility! I love 1password, I will never seriously consider using it.
-
"Seems to work well."
Version: Opera 11.0
Pros
Easy to use.
Cons
I have found none yet.
Summary
I would recommend this program to anyone looking fro a browser.
-
"Smooth and nice feel to the interface."
Version: Opera 11.0
Pros
Allows my MacBookPro to connect with the office Konica/Minolta for downloading scans unlike Safari or Firefox.
Cons
Doesn't mesh with 1Password - do I really want a second line of password remembering defence?
-
"Quick and responsive."
Version: Opera 11.0
Pros
I use Opera primarily on my Mac mini hooked to the TV as my media browser. It handles video very well.
Cons
Haven't used it long enough to determine any real negatives.
