As of version 7.11, Opera is only a 3.1mb download. That includes the web browser, mail client, and newsreader. If you need to download java with Opera, it is 12.5mb, but that is not a requirement. Compare that to Netscape 7.1’s 29.3mb, Safari’s 6.3mb, Camino’s 7.6mb OmniWeb 4.2.1’s 3.2mb, Mozilla’s 12mb, Internet Explorer’s 11mb to 75mb (depending on installation options), and Firebird’s 6.7mb
