Just installed, looks good. Placement of tabs on the left or right is great.

Not too shabby

Every release of Opera makes me unable to comprehend why so many people dislike it.
It's a strange world, but the likes of Opera make it a better place.

I recently looked at Opera 9.64 after having not used it for a long time; used Opera 10 since the first stages and never looked back. The skin is strikingly better when comparing. It doesn't draw attention when not actively looking and is much more integrated with striking unification of the elements.

For people who are concerned about Javascript speed. Behind the scenes Opera is working a new Javascript engine under the codename Carakan: http://my.opera.com/core/blog/2009/02/04/carakan .

It's not a bad browser Eric, and I can understand why people like an 'all in one' solution. For me, I just want a browser and if Mozilla go the same way as Opera, I'll find something else.

By the way, the icons are not new, I made a skin for firefox using the same icons two years or so ago. This fetish with 'Mac/Chrome like' interfaces is so boring and far too clinical.

Anyway, that's my opinion

Opera 10 is awesome!

Anyone know how to get rid of the taskbar icon when Opera is running?

It's probably something really obvious lol

The icon is in the taskbar when there's an e-mail account in Opera; also if Feeds are enabled, as Feeds need an account.
There is a possible fix: add /notrayicon to the target in the shortcut, e.g:

"D:\Program Files\Opera10\opera.exe" /notrayicon

(is mine).
