With Firefox 3.5 development on peek, it was time for Opera developers to hit the nail with some bold release..So lets see how this new beta release perform when we lay our hands on it..

Opera tries to leverage the gap and fix most of the annoying bugs present in 9.x release.

To see the full effect of turbo , go Here

But remember that turbo is a major privacy risk. Every website you visit can potentially be logged by Opera. Ofcourse they say they don't do it.

it seems turbo slows down my youtubing though.works great for forums and other general sites.

turbo decreases the image quality... so less download size of the webpage... so less time..!

Thanks for sharing this news. I've been using opera for 3.5 years now.

BTW, spell checking was introduced in version 10 alpha if I'm not wrong

OMFG, i just upgraded opera, and it feels good, not to mention its looks

10 beta is just crashing when I try to save some heavy image ( 1.5MB & higher ) from websites but I've never faced such issues with alpha.

 

[Wannabe_a_techie]

Hey thanks for the info, can't wait to try it out.

 

[x3060]

it felt better for me than 9.64 , so removed 9 and kept 10 .
