Opera 10.50 Bêta 2 pour Windows

Et voilà une nouvelle bêta pour le navigateur internet Opera qui, depuis la sortie de la bêta 1, a subi des sorties de versions de test dans un rythme frénétique (une build par jour).

Donc pour cette bêta 2, des corrections de bugs, des améliorations de performances pour le moteur Javascript Carakan et une harmonisation de l'interface (à savoir Windows XP utilisera l'aspect minimal avec le bouton "O" rouge lorsque les onglets sont placés sur le dessus).

Le changelog complet est disponible ci-dessous (enfin en-dessous du lien de téléchargement)
