Absolutely you would; in the same that you can have Windows Media Player and RealPlayer - they are completely seperate programs.
Okie Dokie! Thanx alot!!! :):D

opera rules, its best when you can spoof, if you are identifyed as opera you cannot use the msn memebers directory (apparently due to incompatability), you just change it to identify as IE and click refresh and it works.
I have opera 6 and you can double click on a word and get the definition, search an encyclopedia, get a translation etc. its cool. Validate source is another top thing. Frame source aswell and also image address can be copied to the clipboard.
also you can disable stuff like javascript and popup windows.
Opera has much the same shortcuts as internet explorer.

Yup, you can still use IE, but you won't want to ;)
Hey guys
I just downloaded Opera 7 too and it looks pretty neat.
I was just wandering also what browsers you guys have installed for testing etc. I have the following:
Netscape 4.6
Netscape 6.2
Internet Explorer 5.5
Opera 7
:thumbsup:

The results of the browser tests is.....
IE 5.5, some sort of outdated, if you like IE SOOOOO much, use IE6 instead
Netscape 6.2, stole some features from Opera, so if you like opera you will like Netscape 6.2 too.
Netscape 4.6/4.7, like IE, OUTDATED! use Netscape 6.x instead.
Opera 7, as you said, it is COOL, GOOD, STABLE and FAST! Get it even if you user other browsers. Worth it.
