right, you are from norway

it's a deb file you can install via dpkg and also remove it like that!

it's way faster and consumes much less memory. But firefox has great extensions. I'm using both. They have both their strengths and weaknesses

Shoud be as easy as dpkg -r right?

From a layman's perspective, 8.02 Preview is still Opera. Fast load, fast browsing, I love the pop-up blocker, yadda yadda yadda....However, its still Opera, which means its ugly imho. The torrent capability is a nice addition, although from just briefly looking at it, is overly simplistic, offering no controls whatsoever to the user. I prefer bittornado myself, and will continunue with it for my torrent downloads. Overall, I think this is a very good idea for browser integration, and we should continue to see it mature (hopefully) over the next couple of releases.

I just don't like that you have to open for each file a new one!
