Yes, konqueror is out.  However, kong/E (or whatever
they end up calling the PC version of Sahara) is a
different story.  In a few months we could see something
good there.

I've been running Opera on my 486-66 with 16mb RAM.  It
takes forever to load, but once it's there it performs OK.
With nested tables, in particular, it is very fast.  When
Netscape 3.04 does a complex table, it thrashes the CPU
at 100% for several seconds.  There's one page I visit often
that takes ten seconds of thrashing (after it has fully
downloaded).  That's with Netscape 3.04 running on a P166
with 64mb RAM.  Opera (running on a 486-66 with 16mb RAM)
takes just four seconds to fully resolve that same page.

There's a lot to like about Opera.

Cheers,
Steven
