"As previously reported, Opera Software A/S made its first free
browser available for download Wednesday. Now the next issue is
whether or not the Oslo, Norway-based software maker will also free
its BeOS, Mac OS, and Linux versions of Opera."
"Opera officials said the decision whether or not to
release free versions for other platforms depends on customer
feedback on the company's first ad-supported free release, Opera
5.0 for Windows. "We're first evaluating the feedback," said
Opera chief executive Jon von Tetzchner."
"Von Tetzchner did not offer a timetable as to when Opera will
make the final decision on issuing new free versions of its
browser. He said the company is in the midst of evaluating that
issue."
