Oh wow, who saw that coming. In 2009, it just seemed the browser I met with the same dull logo would stay with it forever. Well, lucky us, our docks and task bars will stop being poluted with the crappy red O logo starting Opera 10.

I really like the new O. It still stands out like a sore thumb my Mac’s dock crowd of icons for its rash color and lack of complexities, but alass, a bit like that new Firefox logo nobody saw (yup, they actually changed the colors and depth a bit since 3.5), it’s better, only in this case, way better.

Not withstanding the browser itself, the designers (Ian Hickson I think) at Opera Software are doing a good job with Opera 10. It’s coming out as a neat browser, although the lack of native looks is truly exasperating. Mind you, Apple does a so so job at making its components follow a real standard look, but the delicious generation style is at least more thourough on OS X apps than it is for its Windows XP counterparts.
