Fastest?
Please stop spreading these lies. Opera is NOT the fastest. Chromes JS Engine still blows everyone out the water. FF3 JS Engine is faster than Opera, with word that FF4 JS Engine is getting an upgrade.

Is this what Opera has come to? If they had a decent browser that was even mildly popular they wouldn't even be worrying about this. Do you see google pursuing this? Of course not, Chrome ALREADY has a higher market share! Do you see Mozilla pursing this? Once again no, they have a decent market share.
Opera is a thing of the past, just like Netscape.
** The flame cause thats where Opera belongs. **
Actually the Xbox isn't that bad at all. With the introduction of the XNA from Microsoft and the OPEN SOURCE solution OpenXDK there is a much bigger oportunity for developers here. Same goes for Google's Android. I can't say much about the PS3's openness to developers because I have never needed to develop on it.
Tell Opera to shut the fuck up and accept the fact they have one of the lowest market shares. They haven't done anything innovative in YEARS and their recent "fastest javascript engine" is still slower than Chrome's V8 engine. It is time for them to just get out of the browser business and attempt to enter a field where they may have a fighting chance to make some money.
That is all.
This is what I expect from Opera after all these years of holding onto their 3.5% (+/- 2%) market share. They promise the world and give an acre. Lets look at this from a security point of view... would you really want someone that knows nothing about computers suddenly running their own web server? I suppose that we do need job security for tech support but come on... Talk about giving the bad side of the web a golden ticket to the chocolate factory!
Even Paris can have her own web server now!
