Opera 10

[Revenger1589]

I see, I may give it a chance because those improvements you mention sound very tempting. I tried one of the first pre-alpha builds and it was very unstable but the rendering engine was definitely an improvement.

They have been releasing more than a build per day, I guess the guys at Opera want to have the final version ready for the browser ballot in Europe.

[felix]

Oh is that it. Was wondering what the hype with windows builds was as of late. Should have known!

[edit]

There were issues with the download links (mirrors) use ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/win/1050b1/en/ if the Opera build is not 3248 on windows.

Spoiler for 10.50:

Installed the new build and its much faster also love the design changes here an there .

I need to know is it possible to get rid of this ?

EDIT

Switched back to 10.10, had a couple of crashes on beta =/

Yes I do hope they fix those, I really want to use 10.5

[Revenger1589]

Yeah, latest build is really unstable under windows 7, but I'll keep on using it until they release a new one. I can't go back to 10.10 after trying the awesomeness of 10.5.

[chikorita157]

I applied the All Glass Theme on Opera in my Windows 7 VM and it does look very nice. Overall, I installed the Beta build, not the latest and it runs fast and hopefully it was stable.

Don't worry its not the anywhere near stable on XP either; but its to be expected with the radical changes it has -- this one should have just been Opera 11 honestly.

[Zu Ra]

Using XP64 so that rules out Win Server 2003 .... I been using Beta Version for a good 2 years . This is the first time a version of beta build has been this unstable .

[felix]

For beta pretty sure this is up there as the worst but I think Revenger1589 nailed the reason in his first post on this page.

Opera Widgets for Desktop

Although they run outside the browser, Opera Widgets have been treated as entities inside the browser in many respects. The new Opera Widgets for Desktop ends this dependency on the browser and moves Opera Widgets to the next level: that of first-class applications. Above all, Opera Widgets for Desktop gives widgets the potential to replace some native applications on the computer.
Opera Widgets for Desktop includes the following features:
A Widget menu located within the Mac menu bar. Menu options include:
Get Widgets
Manage Widgets... (opens the Widgets panel in the Opera user interface)
What are Opera Widgets?
Widget lifespans are separated from the Opera desktop browser.
Each widget runs in a separate process.
Integration with the operating system includes support for creating desktop and Dock-based application shortcuts.
Widgets are now visible in Mac Exposé
Widget control buttons organize important actions:
Move
Close
Minimize
Settings
Support is provided for different widget modes such as "Application" and "Widget".
Notification pop-ups are supported.
Password manager is supported.
File I/O (Input/Output) access is supported.
The upgrading of installed widgets from current to new runtime is supported.
Improved support for Opera Dragonfly is provided.
Remote debugging is possible; configurable via a widget's context menu.
Non-modal notification messages
Notification message windows no longer interrupt workflow
JavaScript alerts, HTTP notifications, Password Manager, etc., now display as page overlays
Switching of tabs or windows while these dialogs are displayed is now allowed
Private browsing
Creating, browsing, and then closing private tabs and private windows removes all records of Web sites visited through them.
Using the traditional Mac Dock or File menu, go to:
File > New Private Tab
File > New Private Window
Web Storage
Support is established for:
Session storage: offers a temporary storage of data.
Local storage: stores data for a longer period until the user explicitly clears it.
The Address field autocomplete list now includes opera:webstorage.
Warning dialogs when exceeding storage quotas:
User option is available to increase, or set unlimited quotas for web storage.
See: Web Storage W3C Working Draft (http://www.w3.org/TR/webstorage/).
Web SQL Database
Support is established for:
Storage of data in a more structured manner.
Querying data using SQL.
Warning dialogs when exceeding storage quotas:
User option added to increase, or set unlimited quotas for web database.
The Address field autocomplete list now includes opera:webdatabases.
See: Web SQL Database W3C Working Draft (http://www.w3.org/TR/webdatabase/).

Overall, I see 10.50 going to Cocoa a big improvement over 10.1 and it have a cleaner interface... Also, PowerPC support is missing because of Opera have redone the Javascript engine which isn't ready yet for PowerPC (same case with Unix PPC Opera builds.)

[Zu Ra]

I am going to actually wait this time before installing Beta 2 Build . Probably will check this thread now and then to see if it indeed stable like the older Beta Builds .

Beta 2 is much more stable and closer to what Opera had us accustomed to, however, I wouldn't recommend it as a main browser yet. At the pace they are going it's probably going to be ready for the ballot in a couple of weeks.

lol wut?

They keep releasing them faster than I can get them.

This version of Opera is coming out great, all the problems I had with older builds were fixed and it's very stable. There are so many improvements compared to 10.10 this should have been called Opera 11 like you said Felix.

Luckily A.Ruzanov updated oget so that's also working fine.

^ For your reference, this security fix was implemented in the Opera 10.50 (with Opera Widgets for Desktop) beta 1 for Windows.
- Fixed a moderately severe security issue.

@Revenger1589: The reason why they were rushing to complete and release 10.50 is because Microsoft, once again pushed by the EU, is on the cusp of releasing the browser ballot for Windows 7's European edition and the deadline is inching closer. So don't be surprised if there's a lot of bugs to mop up - earlier installments (10.0) already suffered from this particular affliction.
