Opera 10.0 Released, With Integrated Web Server Functionality 437
sherl0k writes "Opera 10.0, dubbed Opera Unite, has been released. Built into the Web browser is a full-fledged Web server, complete with nifty little gadgets such as a 'fridge' that people can post notes onto, a chat room, a widget to stream your music library anywhere, and a built-in file-sharing mechanism. It also scores 100/100 on the Acid3 test."
Readers fudreporter and TLS point to The Register's report on the new release and a
5-minute video demo, respectively. Update: 06/16 15:18 GMT by T: Roar Lauritzsen of Opera Software writes to point out that "release" isn't quite the right word here; though you can download it, version 10.0 is still in beta, and the version with Unite is a labs (experimental) release.

You spend less time with a broken browser, and more time enjoying a cold one.
Dude, necrophilia is wrong.

Me too. Although I couldn't say /. looks very, very good :-(
But at least you can say it's rendered properly.

Unfortunately, it still looks completely out of place.
It's highly functional. Of course it looks out of place on a Mac.

Did they just slap a GUI on Emacs?
No, but I hear that Emacs is going to be one of Opera Unite widgets in the final release. Now you can truly run your OS inside your browser!

On every aspect the title and summary is just so wrong.
It's getting so that Digg has better, more accurate summaries. Scary.
