Whoa… that’s a very busy control panel… why is it adding all your favorites with all its buttons?

It only does the “split screen” for when you’re running a video… right?

No! I can split anything as follows:
1) website to website in halves or in quarters (but that is too small)

For instance, I would be sending an email and watching Netflix. Or I could be surfing Facebook and Cyprus Forum. Or I could be posting on Cyprus Forum and sending an email. It's unlimited.

I can also work on a Word, or Excel spreadsheet and watch Netflix, or YouTube, or post on Cyprus Forum.

Below is an Opera Half Half - posting on Cyprus Forum and browsing a Weather Site (Stormcast).

The below is an opera Half and browsing Stormcast in a quarter with cascading windows allowing me to send an email - doing 3 tasks.

I can even go in quarters but its getting a bit ridiculous. I only do halves. 8)

Get Real,

I can even pop out the video like this whenever I want to watch in close to full screen or I can go to full screen mode and just watch Stan or Netflix.

It's brilliant mate. I haven't seen this type of functionality in any browser.

Which is why Opera is the best browser in my opinion.

And when I pop out videos I can adjust the size to anything I like.

i can make it small, place the video in the bottom corner and surf facebook, Twitter, CNN, BBC, or even write an email.

My wife always asks how I can even see what I am typing.

I got 5 on 6 vision. I must have been an owl in a previous life. 8)

I'm into efficiency. Time is precious mate. very precious which brings me to mouse gestures. I can flick between tabs, go back a page in history or forward just on my mouse without actually having to navigate my mouse pointer. i can even open new tabs or close them with gestures. 8)

Now imagine saving 0.1 seconds per click over millions of clicks. It all adds up mate! :lol:

The top control panel is a total mess... only someone with a chaotic brain could possibly be attracted to something like that. :)

you are obviously talking about my tabs. they are not favorites. My favorites are hidden. I have to hit the heart to reveal it or do a CTRL prompt to pull it up.

I flick through multiple sites. that's why they call it surfing. I don't like pulling up websites all the time, so I just leave them open because I know I will go back there in the future.

It’s the perfect example of how NOT to do an interface… designed for aliens, not humans. Ah well... :lol:

Err I don't think so. Anyway, why do you say that? this functionality is offered to make people's lives a bit easier and more efficient.

You stick to doing stuff one at a time.

But give it a go. You will never go back after I convert you to an entirely new alien world! 8)

So come and join me ob1! But are you ready? 8)
