"A new browser that isn't from Microsoft Corp. or Netscape Communications Inc.? Yes, and Opera Software A/S' new Opera browser is as different from the big guys as possible--mostly in good ways."

"Opera Software A/S, of Oslo, Norway, this week released a beta version of its Opera 4.0 browser. In PC Week Labs' tests, the browser proved capable, highly customizable, standards-compliant and innovative--all in a tightly coded (only 1.5MB) application."

"The Opera browser also has excellent platform support: It runs on Windows 3.x and higher, Linux, BeOS and Epoc, and will be ported to the Mac OS and OS/2 platforms."
