Opera is free now and can be modified as you want it to be.

I see some people still do not understand the differences between "free" (as in no charge) and "open".  If you actually read the Opera license, you'd see that Opera cannot be modified. Opera cannot be used on anything but a pc, which may hinder future development of DSL if Opera was included in its base.  

Opera is a commercial product...it may be free of charge and now free of ads, but it is still commercial (not open source, not GPL-compatable, not friendly to those who strive for open standards).

This does not mean it can't be included in DSL, but that it probably won't be.

well i didnt mean programmer way modified.

I ment avarage joe way modified. u can make ur custom menus in Opera without any programmer skills.

ect. Choose how many and what kind of search boxes and where u want to place them.  ect. google, find on this page, download.com.... U add. pop up blokker,zoom,own kids of buttons,Irc.......

Opera rocks
