April 2010 by Marc Jacob
The new Opera browser for Mac is now more than
ten times faster, according to speed comparisons between Opera 10.52 and Opera
10.10. With a powerful new feature set tailored for Mac computers, Opera delivers a
much improved user experience. Download Opera for Mac at http://www.opera.com/.
The new Opera is designed with Mac in mind. This version boasts an improved user
interface, Cocoa integration, multi-touch trackpad gestures and Growl support. This,
combined with the unprecedented speed from the new JavaScript engine, Carakan, and
the new graphic library, Vega, provides a faster and smoother browsing experience.
The new Opera also features the latest in Web standards, including leading SVG
support and HTML 5 video.
Main reasons to try Opera for Mac:
– Top speed - Take advantage of the world’s fastest browser optimized for Mac, now
more than ten times faster than the previous version of Opera for Mac.
– Mac-ified UI – Opera’s new user interface for Mac is now more responsive, with
a unified toolbar and design overhaul.
– Finger navigation – Multi-touch trackpad gestures make browsing much more
efficient. Pinch to zoom or use two fingers to scroll and three fingers to navigate
back and forth in your browser history, all from your trackpad.
– Turbo-charged browsing – When surfing with your Mac on slow, congested networks,
for example at an airport or on a train, Opera Turbo comes to the rescue, ensuring
the fastest page loading no matter the crowd. Tests show that Opera Turbo provides
about 65% faster browsing on Edge and around 50% faster browsing speed on 3G
networks.
