The latest version of the Opera web browser gets a perfect score on the Acid3 web standards test, which is pretty impressive until you realize that Firefox and Internet Explorer fall short of that score. And if the two most popular web browsers on the face of the earth don't fully meet these web standards, what good are they exactly?
That said,
Opera 10 Alpha 1 includes a number of other tweaks that make this web browser worth checking out:
- Inline spell checking
- Automatic updates
- Updated Presto 2.2 rendering engine
Opera Mail has also been improved, as has the Opera Widget engine for the Linux version of the cross-platform web browser.
