Opera 7 is here, and it only gets better. A bunch of the things that I've always liked are even better than before.

- Support for DHTML. I haven't thoroughly checked this, but a bunch of pages that didn't work with Opera 6 now do. Support for layers and positioning has been brought up to speed in Opera 7.

- In Opera, you can open a set of windows each in its own tab, then save that set and call it back up later. In Opera 7 this has been made a lot easier, so it's really practical to use.

- History is in a tab of the sidebar (mozilla has this too)

- Another sidebar shows all the links in the current window. Opera had this in a links window before, but the sidebar's a really good place for it.

- skins...

- The new email client, M2. More on this later.
