I found Opera to be the best choice for my old P60 that the kids have taken over now. As you said, all else was crawling but Opera stayed quick and smooth with its lower requirements on memory.

For me though, that is all I like about Opera. I like the extras that MS added to IE4, especially the page transitions and hover effects.

Sure, I hate the bugs and security holes in IE, but I didn't find Opera 3.5 to be perfect and that was not free either! I think Opera needs to move in the direction that Eudora and WebFerret and Go!Zilla have taken and become advertiser sponsored. People can register to remove the ads, or can use it for free with the ads paying for the development costs.

Using this model, I believe the use of Opera would sky-rocket and it would really take its place on the map. At the moment it is still less than 1% on most of my logs for my test sites.
