Perversiontracker Reviews Opera

My new favorite OS X software review site, Perversion Tracker, reviews Opera 6.0. And it isn't pretty.

Using Opera is like slipping on a comfortable pair of shoes, and then discovering that your formerly comfortable shoes have been surreptitiously filled with broken glass. As you make this realization, a troupe of baboons rounds the corner, baring and snapping their grisly teeth. They howl and begin to chase you. Knowing you’re the only fresh meat for miles, you start running from this horrible Ape Menace, suspecting that you have somehow fallen into the hands of the Global Monkey Conspiracy. As the simian horde draws closer, in your desperate panic to get away, you slide into a steep ravine. As you strike bottom, you awake, in bed. It was all a dream. You are safe, asleep, and your computer has only non-Opera browsers installed.

It almost sounded bad enough that I wanted to see it for myself, but I resisted the urge. It's a shame. Opera used to be one of my favorite browsers.
