Latest Opera build adds advanced tab manager

Opera already had other tab management features, like the ability to drag and drop tabs to arrange them in your browser. If you drag a tab outside of the Opera window, you can even load that page in a new browser session.
The new tab management option is the sort of thing we don't expect most users to need or even notice. But advanced customization features are one of the areas where Opera really shines. Now if it could just render every web page we visit as well as Firefox or Internet Explorer, we'd be truly happy.
With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.

Now if only they'd make it so that we can put the tab bar wherever we like it -- as in under the address bar like it is in FF, Safari, IE, Camino, etc, etc

Now if only the web would stick to standards it wouldn't matter what browser you wanted to use, all pages would work correctly.
I only have 1% of page problems with Opera. Mostly sites that only work in IE, so Firefox no savior there. Opera FTW

Oh, so Firefox added one thing to the plethora if ideas/standards that they already used from Opera. Gee, Opera sure got pwned, didn't it.

You can put the tab bar under the address bar, I have mine that way. Unfortunately it's a rather long and convuluted process and I don't even remember how I did it now. I believe it involved making a new toolbar, dragging items to it and turning the default one off. Opera desperately needs to work on their ease of use, the options right now are overwhelming and not very logical at all.
