Opera 7 to be Released for Mac OS X

hoist2k writes "CNET is reporting that Opera 7 is going to be released for Mac OS X. I might have to take advantage of their discount for buying the Mac, Linux, and Windows versions all at once!" Opera 6.02 is slated for release on Thursday (the download page currently has Opera 6.0 for Mac OS and Mac OS X, though it erroneously says it is only for Mac OS). Opera 7 is expected "soon," with no word given in the CNET articles for whether it will be for Mac OS X only.

Mac users struggle to give a shit

[Mikey-San]

Hold on a second. I'm supposed to give a crap about a browser that has a terrible UI and relatively no Mac support (fucking /Internet Explorer/ is updated more often than Opera, guys)? Opera 6 is easily the worst browser on the Mac (slow, buggy, blah rendering engine), and they had the nerve to threaten to pull out of the Mac market when Apple released Safari and wouldn't use their [Opera's] rendering engine at the core [of Safari]?

Opera doesn't care about the Mac, so why should we use their languishing browser? The Windows and Linux versions may be decent, but the Mac versions have always blown hard.

Mozilla/Camino, Safari, OmniWeb 4.5 ... There are better browsers out there. (And for you 9 users, straight-up Mozilla beats Opera with a forked stick.)

Opera: "Hey, Mac users, we've decided to continue to grace your platform with our product. Aren't you grateful?"

Mac users: "Hey, Opera, eat me."
