I am trawling these forums because Opera crashes often on me.
I saw this response and had to reply. Do not mean to offend any one or change the topic. Apologize if I did.
The idea of using a laptop / Browser is the power and flexibility of extensions. If you have a $1500 computer with an i7 and 16 GB of ram you would assume that would work with all the extensions you need to get productive. One would hope the DEV's do not expect us to use this browser like a Chrome book.
I love the choices of Browsers we have and I thank all the developers and testers that make these products great. Yes there are many moving parts, But I really wish folks would not suggest crippling the features just to make the browser stable. Personally I restrict the number of extensions I have installed.
