I use Opera but have it set to identify as Mozilla on most sites. I wonder if there are Opera users that are under-represented in the graph that are "identifying as" Mozilla or IE for html compatibility issues.

I've used Opera before, even recently, but went back to Firefox because of some of the extensions. Opera is reputed to be very fast, and I agree that it seems more responsive than any other browser (inlcuding Firefox).

What about operating systems? It would be interesting if there are more Linux or Mac users than on average.

Konquorer users often change their identification as well. In fact, using a Konquorer browser was the first time I saw that really nifty feature!

I guess I'm a glass-half-empty kind of guy, because I look at that chart and see 1) a pie chart? Get thee behind me, Satan, and 2) there's a giant toxic wedge of Internet Explorer in there. Worst browser ever, and so many people use it.

As for OS data: Mac is about 15%, Linux about 5%.
