   I have Opera installed. I am not sure how best to rate it. Its   
   reasonable capable and fast. It does seem that for simple use Net   
   Positive does about as well and if you need all the various bells and   
   whistles of a new browser then Mozilla/Firebird is more suitable.   
      
   It is still necessary to purchase a license. It is purchased through BTI   
   Micro not through Opera and the cost is $10. The 30 day trial is   
   actually 30 days of using it, so if you run it only on weekends it will   
   run for months. Registration is kept in settings, so tossing the opera   
   settings every once in awhile will extend the "trial" for as long as you   
   need to decide.
