I’ve been a serious Opera user since the first version of the Opera 9 series, and I’m currently running Opera 10.5 pre-alpha. It is a great product and it indeed does make web development fun. I do almost all my web development in Opera and only test in other browsers when I need to. However, I’ve been meaning to try out JavaFX for a while now, but I’ve not made the switch to it yet, simply because Opera does not support the new Java Plugin 2 which is required for running JavaFX applets. JavaFX has been around for at least a year now, and I’ve not found a tangible reason why it should/does not work in Opera.
