    Don't forget that you can go back a page with your mouse. Deafult configuratios is hold right button and click left button.

    Forward is reverse, hold left and click right.

    And since Opera (by deefault) doesn't reload backed or forwarded pages, this operation is very fast.

    Not to mention gestures: Hold right button and move mouse to the left, you are back. Hold right button and move mouse to the right, and you go forward.

    Frankly, Opera kick ass ;-)
