You might have to buy a bigger harddrive, too ;)

I remember that there recently was an article about several companies which pushed Microsoft to buy Opera. Anyone remember it? I really hope they don't. Competition is good, hehe.

How would that work, though?  Opera is an early fork from the Mozilla project, right?  I'm not sure how well Microsoft's EULA would mesh with the Gecko engine.  They certainly couldn't release it under its own separate license, that would be just too darn legally weird for them - they'd have to combine it in with the rest of the OS.

Wrong ;)
Opera has been there since 1995, and Netscape began to make its products open source in 1998.
