Have not seen anyone asking, but for those few that use Opera, they now have a development work around that will at least enable you to browse in Snow Leopard. Available below:

Opera 10 has been working fine for me in Snow Leopard.

Worked great for me with the upgrade install I did from Leopard also.

Did a clean install last weekend, and Opera just absolutely refused to load a page in less than 2-3 minutes if at all.

All I've found is that it is a combination issue between Opera, 10.6 and some ISP's and how they all handle IPv6.

I know I had IPv6 disabled in Leopard and tried that in the clean install of 10.6 but it was still a no go for me. The new 10.10 beta seems to be working fine though.

Interesting. I will have to check into this. I have not used Opera much on my 10.6 Mac but the few times I did it seemed normal. Thanks for the heads up and Tip.
