    by Jim Rapoza
  • When first installing the alpha of Opera 10, the browser attempts to highlight new features such as the new Presto 2.2 browsing engine.
  • The alpha of Opera 10 can successfully complete the Web Standards Project's advanced Acid3 browsing standards test.
  • With the alpha of version 10, Opera joins competing browsers such as Firefox that have the ability to do inline spell-checks.
  • In the e-mail client of Opera 10 alpha, users can choose on a per e-mail basis whether they want to use HTML formatting or plain text.
  • While much of the core functionality of Opera 10 alpha remains the same as the current version, the browser does appear to have a cleaner and more "chrome-like" interface.
