I understand the point regarding website compatibility. That will defiantly be a bonus, it is usual something we have to deal with being Opera users. But, I hate Chrome's interface. I do not see any reason for the layout of Opera 17 to be the same as Chrome. It would seem that with a little more code we Opera could maintain key features, Main Bar and Panels, which sets it apart from the other browsers. I will continue using Opera 12, and hope that soon Opera 17 will have the same features if it does not then I might have to switch to Chrome.
