Steven, I reply not to disagree, but to flesh out some of the specifics.
First, I'm running 1.9GHz with 1 Gb RAM. While that would perhaps run apps a little faster, I don't see how it would cause us to have quite opposite experience in comparing Opera and Galeon speed. Let me give an example of my frustrations with Opera. If I hit K2 to bring up the Go to Page dialog, it pops up a bit slowly, but it takes a couple additional seconds for the window to gain content and even more to acquire the focus. If I have a URL in my clipboard to paste, bringing up the dialog empties the clipboard. If instead I type the URL, the first letter goes not type. I waste a lot of time playing games just to visit a URL. Another problem is web page loading hangs. I'll click on a link, and the load hangs. I go and do something else for a few more minutes and come back to find the page has finally loaded. Another petty example. I go to use the Search text field. If there is a string still there from my previous search, I select it, but DEL won't get rid of it, more often than not. I have to delete it letter by letter and type in what I want. It's the accumulation of these annoyances that are driving me away from Opera.
