    Opera 8?!? Blimey, I though the Ring Cycle went on too long, and there are only half as many as that.

      No stopwatch. Less features than Mozilla. Lame.

      As long as Slashdot uses standards it should be safe.

    It's strange that noone of the ./ crowd has mentioned that Opera is the best browser for porn.
