Opera

it seems that the google forgets about opera browser.
gmail doesn't support it, google calendar too.
what is the problem?
are google coders so lazy or they think that not many people use opera?

Most people use either Internet Explorer or Firefox though they should have made Gmail & Calendar work on Opera too... As I know a few people who use Opera.

I like Opera.
The default tabbed browsing features are far superior to Firefox, but most of the things Opera does can be accomplished by Firefox extensions.
The integrated bittorrent manager is also a good idea.
I'm surprised Opera isn't supported.

EDIT: Just so that nobody gets the wrong end of the stick, I'm a Firefox user.

Yes I also like Opera. Especially now there are no more annoying adverts at the top of the screen!

I am also waiting for Google's support for Opera browser. Impatiently.

I remeber a few months back they were giving full verisons of Opera for free because they were marking there 10 year anniversary or something.
