Opera Gives That C64 Feel

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the blast-from-the-past dept.

howcome writes "Opera yesterday relased beta2 of the forthcoming 7.0 version. Opera now supports mulitple user style sheets and by selecting "Nostalgia" from the menu all web pages suddenly resemble Commodore 64 (screendump1 screendump2) from 20 years back. Also, there is a handheld emulator to see what a page will look like on a handheld device running Opera. To get you through Christmas, you can also use the "fast-forward" button. Try it on Google (screendump)!"

    If you can't be the best, do something kind of zany and creative in hopes of keeping your business afloat.

    Hey, I guess they figured it works for Apple and could maybe work for them.

    Three cheers for Opera!

    I still play with my C64 sometimes... I really love it! Few games today can beat the wonderful feeling of The Last Ninja series, Outrun (yes, I think the C64-version is WAY better than the arcadeversion, especially the music), H.E.R.O, Uridium, Monty on the run, etc etc.. Not to mention the "Games"-series.. (World Games, Summer Games, Winter Games, California Games)...
