The new WebKit-based Opera browser has been updated to version 16. The browser still looks and acts almost exactly like Google Chrome, and as such there’s not much to recommend it. Many features that worked well in the non-WebKit version of the browser – still available as version 12 – are missing from version 16. That includes the auto-update feature. In fact, there isn’t even a link on the About page or in the browser’s menus that points to a download page. My advice is to give this browser a pass. If you still like and use the old Opera 12 browser, keep your fingers crossed that it will continue to receive updates.
