    Might be a tad too late. Maybe if they had done it before Firefox came out...

    Pah, it's still not Free - there's no source code.

    TBH, Firefox seems like a much better browser all-round, with or without a license fee for Opera.

    Ctrl-G Strips all font and color formatting from a page, use it to instantly tell if somebody's stuffed a page full of H1's; works great on hard to read fonts and light colors too

    G Turn off all graphics - like Lynx except a real browser

    Close buttons on each tab

    Much faster than Firefox

    Coherent design that feels like it goes together instead of random developers copying features from other applications

    F12 Quick access to common options

    SDI and true MDI interface

    Drag and drop tabs between windows or within a window

    Instant back/forward

    Still only a 4MB download

    Doesn't require 5 extensions to be usable

    Doesn't break those 5 extensions everytime there's a new release!

    Popup blocking a few years before the rest

    Tabs a few years before the rest

    etc
