Hello All, I subscribe to Fred Langas' Langa List, he discusses various topics regarding computers in general. Tonight he discussed news of Opera and thought some of you maybe interested. This news does not directly effect the Windows 3.1 version of Opera yet. Good News: Opera is no longer shareware! The bad news is.... Now Opera is Banner-Adware. The Win9x version supports newer technology, even comes with an instant messaging client based on ICQ. The windows 3.1 version is still shareware, however I get the impression that it may become ad-ware soon. If interested and want to read everything Fred Langa has to say about Opera 5.0 goto http://www.langa.com/newsletters/2000/2000-12-14.htm#1 Sorry if this is a bit OT.
