I'm still using 12.6 while stuck in Windowsland, but plan to get a Mac soon and just use Safari. What really kills Opera 15 for me (in Windowsland) is that the keyboard cannot be customised. I can't stand windows standard keybindings; I need unix text editing bindings, etc. With Opera and cygwin I could live in Windowsland, doing most things in them, after having decided that Linux is dead. Not anymore, thanks to Opera being dead as well. I have to go for a Mac... only problem is the god-awful Touchpad on Apple laptops. I want my Trackpoint!

Oh good grief.

Thanks guys. I was hoping someone had encountered the problem before but looks like it's just me. No biggie. Firefox just got my business. Toodles!

Okay, so up until now, besides a complete lack of any features, Opera Next was a good web browser, not exceptional like the old Opera, but still, quite usable and in my opinion, better than the competition. However, now I'm having serious problems with the browser. Specifically, it stopped loading web pages this past weekend for a couple of days, then came back on it's own. The only new feature I actually liked or used, the Discover news feed reader, is now busted. It shows the stories but clicking them does not reliably result in any action. So, anyhow, I'm throwing this out there in case someone has had a similar problem but I searched the forums and I don't see anything. It makes me sick to say it but after years with Opera, I think I'm going to have to switch. You know what really stinks? The only browser besides Opera that does everything I need is IE. Joy.
