oddly enough, I decided to install and run opera for the very first time the same day the news story was released. Article:(Friday, 17. March 2006, 09:01:15) Install stamp: (Friday, March 17, 2006, 8:42:51 PM)
I was very impressed with the software, as many are, and am now sad to hear of this loss.
I also recommended opera to my sister, who uses MSIE over Firefox because the favorites button has a shiny star. I kid you not.

That way I don't have to delete all the links to Media Player when I have to repair my windows installation. Again. Plus I'll have a media player that opens fast and doesn't get all obscure if I happen to click on skin mode by accident.

After reading the Dune: the battle of corrin,
