Nope, firefox and IE are all I need (firefox being my default browser).

THe only main thing that I like about Opera is the start up screen, you can put all your sites right there, and thrn you just click them instead of having to type in the adress. I wish firefox had something like that that they could offer.

I only use Opera for developmental purposes. I don't really like it that much otherwise.

Yeah, they were the first to do the tabbed browsing, although they get very little credit for it. Thanks Opera, for giving Mozilla the idea!

it really wasn't tabbed browser per say though it was more of tiled or cascaded browsing... i believe that firefox / mozilla was the first to actually put tabs like mIRC did. then ie adapted it... not sure if opera does tabbed browsing now or if they actually do the window thing still... and computer dude firefox has an addon called speed dial that has that same homepage thing like you were talking about. that was adapted from opera.
