As I recall, the initial main attraction of Opera was that is was
relatively small and very fast in contrast to the supposedly bloated and
slow IE and even Netscape. There are those now who fault Opera for becoming
as bloated as the other two, but apparently stick with it anyway.

The fact remains that for me IE is the only browser that allows me to go
anywhere I like on the internet without problems and that is why I continue
to use it. I don't fault nor praise it because it is MS's. Rather, I use it
simply because it works better than any of the other main contenders.
