Opera 9.6

… on Vista = still FAIL.

For each version of Opera that comes out, I will continue giving tirades of vitriolic remarks on the shear disappointment it is inflicting, until it stop crashing on Vista. Vista is not as stable as XP, but that gives no excuse to Opera ASA to release software to accompany its instability. I mean c’mon Opera! What happened between 9.27 and 9.5? Did 9.6 just keep on using the same old bugs introduced to 9.5? Well apparently so. Fix it. Or go back to your 9.27 codebase. Otherwise Google Chrome sure is looking good with its speed. Who cares about giving up my privacy for a significant boost in speed?

And while I’m at it, Opera’s new campaign Discover Opera is one hell of a boring campaign. But I guess that is acceptable and intended as a conservative approach to the vista of the company, since the more people that flock to Opera, the more people will discover the heinous experience the new Opera is wreaking.

    In my opinion, the new Opera sure is a cool browser to hang out with, but only if eye candy is the primary motive. Otherwise, Firefox and Chrome are better than Opera! :)
