Rush For Opera 8 Bigger Than Firefox’s

By

Clearly, the browser wars are far from over. In fact, they seem to be red hot!

Opera Software claimed Thursday that the response to the release of its newest browser was so massive that it had to install new servers to handle the loads.

In the first 48 hours since its Tuesday release, Opera 8 was downloaded more than 600,000 times. By comparison, rival Firefox claimed 1,000,000 copies grabbed in the opening 24 hours after its 1.0 version went final in early November 2004.
