Opera 9 Final Review

Opera 9 is a good Internet browser. It is light-years ahead of Microsoft's new Internet Explorer 7 beta. But should you trade in our current Editors' Choice browser Firefox 1.5? No.
While Opera 9 is free to download and offers a number of built-in goodies, such as BitTorrent media support and desktop Widgets, these are not necessarily features that everyone needs.

What kind of article is this? It states this already at the beginning of the article!
Incredibly stupid way to review software, settling the deal even before the article starts. "Yes, this is a good browser, but don't even think about replacing Firefox!" C|Net has never been the most impartial of reviewers, but this was just ridiculous. We really do like Opera 9, but we like it more as the cool, cutting-edge browser that it is and not as our everyday workhorse for the Internet. For that, we highly recommend the more extensible Firefox browser instead. What's up with that? Doesn't even explain why... |

Because it is 'extensible' - they say so in so many words. |

"While we really like Opera 9, its many features are somewhat esoteric for most people who simply want a good, secure browser. For that we recommend Firefox 1.5. But for the technically adventurous, Opera 9 will shine." Interesting review alright |

Should FF Fanboys be allowed to review Opera? |

Why does preferring 1 Browser over another make you a fanboy? |
