I too wish Opera could be included in a distro but I understand why that is not possible. I have used it on Windows 95, 98se, ME, Xp, several Linux distro's, NetBsd2.0, and on a PalmOS PDA. IMO no other browser comes close in comparison. I had a pirated key for it but thought so much of it that I went ahead and bought it anyway. To be honest with you I wish it wasn't free now because with the companys interest switching to smartphones and other small devices I am afraid development of the main browser will lag behind.
