Release notes

Release date: November 23, 2009

Opera 10.10 with Opera Unite is a recommended upgrade offering new and improved features, plus security and stability enhancements. 
New feature
Opera Unite

Opera Unite gives you the power to connect with others directly and to collaborate and share information from your computer without storing any data on external servers. It enables you to unleash the true power and reality of the "one Web for all" experience. When you choose to share something on your computer using Opera Unite technology, it is available for family, friends, or the entire world — you decide what to share and how to share it with users that you trust. To communicate with you or access your shared data, others can use any modern Web browser they like.

Opera Unite initially includes the following Opera Unite applications, which are small Web-service programs running inside the Opera 10.10 browser.
Opera Unite Home
Your personal Opera Unite Web page shows the Opera Unite applications you wish to share with family, friends, or the world.
File Sharing
The File Sharing application enables a simple and safe way to share files directly from your computer.
Fridge
The Fridge application enables people to leave notes on your computer.
Media Player
The Media Player application enables access to your complete home music library from wherever you are.
Messenger
A personal and private chat connection between you and another Opera Unite user who is listed as your friend on myopera.com.
Photo Sharing
The Photo Sharing application enables you to share your personal photos with friends around the world without the need to upload them.
Web Server
The Web Server application enables you to host your Web sites from your own computer.

I wonder how many final version Opera will release later on..

Opera aren't going to go under any time soon if that's what you're insinuating... they're still making money with the mobile version of their browser.

If the worst case happens they could still open the source code and let the F/OSS community take over development.

I really don't know why Opera bother with the desktop browser market... They're never going to be ANYTHING other than an also-ran against IE, Firefox or Chrome, but their mobile browser is widely considered to be THE browser for mobile phones.

They should stick to concentrating on improving that instead, and give up on the desktop market.

Opera's browser may not be the market breadwinner, but has anyone considered that, like Apple with OSX, market domination isn't really their primary overriding goal. As a company, their goal is to make money, and as long as they continue to do so, they will not stop developing Opera.

Not to mention discontinuing Opera would pi** a lot of people off, myself included

It have never been like that for me. Looks like your cache is bad or something. Clear it.

I clear it everytime I close the browser so its not that

Methinks you have Fit to Width turned on. :s

what now? where's that located? :p

oh neowin your still borked :(

It displays fine for me too. Have you tried uninstalling and deleting all Opera related folders in AppData\Local and AppData\Roaming? I recommend backing up all your bookmarks, speed dial, notes, etc. with Opera Link so you can sync them up after a clean install.

Edit: So it seems Fit to Width when logged in does reproduce the issue. Disable it, 3rd icon on the status bar on the right.

I never gave Opera a second thought untill this version it's now my default in Ubuntu the speed alone is worth the switch, try it you'll be glad you did.

Opera is really my second favorite browser, only one thing bothers me is that there is no option to switch to previous tab on closing current tab (all the options provided don't cover this tiny option).

It would be also great If we could also see windows 7 enhancements in opera, or perhaps even an "Aero-ified" UI.

In my opinion, getting Carakan and an updated Vega out in the public beta builds (the former is their updated Javascript engine, the latter is their graphics library that in the next major engine update is supposed to allow GPU acceleration for rendering, similar to what IE9 is doing) is of higher priority than Windows 7 integration.

Good to hear. :) You don't need Fit to Width 95% of the time anyways.
