The wait is over!  Its time to sing a new opera! Shall we? Today Opera has release their latest browser Opera 10 (With Turbo). According to what they say its have lots of new features including their new “Turbo” technology which boosts slow connections! Lets talk about it a bit and find out whether they are true or not!

Now Im writing this article from the new opera, earlier i used firefox … actually at first it loads faster than firefox, that means its light on resources, actually i can’t say much about the page loading speed seems to be same as firefox (without the turbo), very user friendly with lots of tools (widgets, speed dial…)!

Actually i found one problem in it, sometimes when i type a URL it takes time for opera to start loading it (Not that the loading is slow, takes time to start the loading process), well i don’t know whether its an error in my PC, these days Im using a very slow PC (my one is sent for repairs).

Overall it seems to be great, but lets not just jump into any conclusions… lets see what the users comment and then we can decide!
