- You're running on a really slow CPU
Opera runs fine on slow CPUs, why can't Moz?
see above.
- You don't have Quick Launch turned on (just in case you were wondering, Microsoft does this with their products, just behind your back -- that's why Windows appears to take up so much RAM and takes a while to load)
Even with Quick Launch enabled, Opera still starts faster than Moz.
- You're using the default skin (uuuugly! get Pinball!)
You call that a decent skin? If that's you idea of good looking...
- You haven't taken the time to configure it
Is there anything that will make browsing with feel less like you could get out and walk to the web server and retrieve the page yourself faster than Mozilla can fetch it for you?
- You like spyware like Alexa and Gator
What spyware? I've run ad-aware dozens of times and it hasn't found anything that wasn't put there by programs like KaZaA or DivX.
- You WANT to get an X10 spycam
Say what? I've been using the free version of Opera for nearly three years and I barely notice the ad banner. It's not like it sits in the middle of the screen, if you spend most of your browsing time starting at the top right of the browser window then there must be something seriously wrong with you...
