This is just what we need. Idiots from Paypal shaping the interwebs.

You have Chrome, Firefox, and even Safari. What compels you to use Opera over any of those?

It looks like a great car, has plenty of power, range etc, but I still think its too expensive to be a no brainer.

The author is taking an existing concept that is not new at all and describing it in a fancy way to make it sound like a great new thing.

This reminds me of how UX designers talk about their job. Their job importance can be measured in X and they are always trying to make it sound important as X squared. Please front end guys, do not do this.

Also remember that things started costing 5 cents until inflation ran those same items up to dollars.

So let me get this straight, Opera is suing you because they think you gave away secrets. It appears they have no hard evidence, no emails, no phone conversations, just someone talking about ideas. I would personally laugh at them and think about all of the money I would get when they lose.

Also Opera needs your millions so that they can continue to support a piece of software that no one uses. (Chrome FTW!)
