Just installed 9.5B2........Holy crap. Pages load super quick. My 20/5 Fios connection seems faster. The open in another browser actually open the other browser and not in a tab. That kinda sucks, but it's still cool.
According to http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/windows/ 9.5 Beta 2 was released April 24th.
Also the article at http://www.pcmag.com/article2/.....692,00.asp says the final release of 9.5 should be available by Summer.
You can run them bot hat the same time with no issues. No one can tell you if it's worth it or not. You'd have to try it and decide for yourself. My opinion? Yeh, it's worth it. Uses less resources than FF and it is lightning Quick. I am a FF user and do not use IE, but after trying the 9.5b2 of Opera i think i will be using it more.
Hi Opera great , having a bit of trouble with a couple of things , Spell vhecking downloaded what it adviced but when i right click to check i get a pop up to take me back to the website that i downloaded what they asked for also Mail notifier how do i get that to work , early days for me withOpera but i you can speed me up it would be helpful

Hi played about with Opera agree very fast but couple of things need sorting before i totally convert from Firefox , Spellcheck just couldn't get it to work , Mail notifier the same and RSS feeds you need to open them a second time , but will definitely give it a go when the full version is available
Cheers Dave
This site http://www.freeemailtutorials......ccount.cwd was useful but i still can't get it to work , it just doesn't want to open yahoo mail . Did look at Opera Cache too many abbreviation for me not that computer literate.
As I had suggested before, your best bet for help is the Opera Forum http://my.opera.com/community/forums/
