Opera: Firefox User Figures 'inflated'
Talkback Opera and Firefox are neck-and-neck. However, if you pay for Opera, Opera then becomes dead even with Firefox again. Then tack on the fact that Opera has a full range of support, as well as better RSS compatibility and IE compatibility, and it has...

Talkback FireFox beats Opera hands down any day of the week AND IT'S FREE. Opera is a lame piece of junk, and the whining from this moron is nothing more than sour grapes. I mean, HELLO?

Talkback Opera has excellent features, like mouse gestures, tabs and its quick. The adverts don't bother me one bit, its a tiny piece of screen, that mostly says 'pls buy opera' Does firefox do mouse gestures, or the r-click/l-click for the backpage command?

Talkback I have about 7 browsers installed on my PC, including 3 IE shells, IE, Firefox and Opera. This is something I have suspected for some time. I asked Onestat about their methods for compiling data on marketshare and they just did not bother responding.

Talkback Being used Opera, I'd choose it any day, only negative side is the big AD which is enough to put people off. I do use Firefox, a few reasons to that : speed, no adds, but it does have very strong negative sides.

Talkback Anything that's good for Firefox is good for Opera.the more people that use standards-compliant browsers, the more websites will be forced to adhere to standards. Competition between FF/Opera/etc.is healthy, but this is definitely a case of sour...

Talkback I've downloaded both Firefox and Opera several times on different PCs, yet use Firefox exclusively. I'll accept that link prefetching may inflate Firefox's results slightly, but according to the stats in the article, Firefox has over 8 times the...

Talkback It seems like Opera has planned this article if it identify itself as IE in default, although it doesnt support all IE features. Well, at least Opera has tried to make us think it is better and more popular.

Talkback Firefox still shows massively higher marketshare then Opera. I don't mind Opera, it's not a bad browser and certainly better then IE, but it can't hope to compete with Firefox for several reasons. What a bunch of sour grapes from Opera.

Talkback I feel that the author has put it in the wrong way.Most probably Jon probably said this single line as a response to low Opera stats and high Firefox stats.But the author made it look like this was the mina subject of the entire discussusion.

Talkback What is best of Firefox or Opera? So Opera has some commercials. this is up to each and one.for my part its Opera, FF doesnt come close, its missing all the parts I want. I don't notice it anymore. Its so anonymous.

Talkback I remember a discussion on some Opera board where I advocated free software. The thought free software could never be something as slick as Opera and the notion of the revolution in the Mozilla foundation that was then just beginning only amused them.

Talkback Firefox and Opera are fighting the same war. Finally, it was REALLY STUPID for opera to complain about firefox.that was some bad PR. Opera Rules. Opera isn't "worser" for being funded by their own work.

Talkback If that's the case it doesn't matter if Firefox users make more requests to websites they should still be counted as a single user. Most stats providers count 'users' not 'hits' or at least claim to.

Talkback 95% of these 'counters' work by Javascript, not log analysis. Link prefetching doesn't execute Javascript, so its not going to appear as a hit.

Talkback With Opera I can restart with all tabs intact and with the tab containing the very web page I was reading. Have been using Opera from the time the installation files would fit on a 1.44MB floppy. It is good but not as good as Opera.
