Opera 10 beta is the latest incarnation of a browser that currently lags in sixth place in terms of market share, according to Net Applications. With just 0.72 percent, it trails Internet Explorer (65.5%), Firefox (22.5%), Safari (8.43%), Chrome (1.8%) and Netscape (0.74%).

The new version, released on Wednesday 3 June, is based on the company's Presto 2.2 rendering engine, and introduces a new skin by UK designer Jon Hicks, visual tabs, a new compression technology (Opera Turbo) for faster browsing on slow connections, automatic updating and BitTorrent support, among other features.
