Downgraded to Opera 9.27 (Opera Sucks)

Because Opera 9.6 sucks. Simple as that. Why did I not do this sooner? Probably because I had too much hope for Opera with the legacy it has created. But why not go to the source of that legacy? Behold, Opera 9.27 on Vista, without crashing!

Let me say this once, but not for all, just to get the message on the grid. If only Firefox fanboys boisterously promote their godsend and Google up things such as:

Opera 9.6 Sucks

and present the proof to the developers, then perhaps it will have some impact on the Opera developers. I mean, did their company not upgrade to Vista yet? Is that why Opera 9.6 crashes so much on Vista? Because they have not mustered the budget to get a Vista machine to test Opera on? Well if that is the case, I’m telling you Opera is defected on Vista, horribly.

Opera 9.6

… on Vista = still FAIL.

For each version of Opera that comes out, I will continue giving tirades of vitriolic remarks on the shear disappointment it is inflicting, until it stop crashing on Vista. Vista is not as stable as XP, but that gives no excuse to Opera ASA to release software to accompany its instability. I mean c’mon Opera! What happened between 9.27 and 9.5? Did 9.6 just keep on using the same old bugs introduced to 9.5? Well apparently so. Fix it. Or go back to your 9.27 codebase. Otherwise Google Chrome sure is looking good with its speed. Who cares about giving up my privacy for a significant boost in speed?

And while I’m at it, Opera’s new campaign Discover Opera is one hell of a boring campaign. But I guess that is acceptable and intended as a conservative approach to the vista of the company, since the more people that flock to Opera, the more people will discover the heinous experience the new Opera is wreaking.
