Opera Says It Can Still Compete In Browser Battle
Published October 20th, 2006 in All Categories, Opera
Even as Microsoft Corp.’s Internet Explorer 7 rolls out to users and Mozilla Corp.’s Firefox 2.0 nears
completion, rival Opera Software remains convinced it can compete, a company executive said Thursday.
Oslo, Norway-based Opera, which develops the same-named browser for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other desktop platforms, as well as miniature browsers for mobile phones and devices, owns less than one percent of the global browser market, according to Web metrics vendors. But its low numbers doesn’t faze the company’s chief technology officer, Hakon Wium Lie.
"We want to increase our user base," said Lie, "and we think we can do it. We just need to educate people about Opera, and show them how Opera compares with the others, especially in security." Opera Says It Can Still Compete In Browser Battle - Industries News by InformationWeek
