They're recommended by a Power Ranger. Seriously, though, Fx (Firefox is not abbreviated as FF) has an easier feel to it. All the extensions available also make it much more useful right now.

Cookie management, page incompatabilities, script issues, etc. FF does about 95% of what I need with fewer headaches. I loved Opera, but it was too high-strung.

That had to be the worst part about using Opera to me. Sure, they could be turned off, but why were they on by default in the first place?
