Opera Software enters the free-browser field intent on winning. Opera will be distributed on millions of CDs accompanying computer magazines around the world, as well as by other software makers and some of the Internet's major Web sites. On installation, Opera defaults to the Sponsored mode. With the release of Opera 5.0 for Windows so close to the version 4.0 release at the end of June this year, Opera Software signals a much quicker pace of development. Opera 4.0 for Windows was released end of June 2000, and was a great success with over 1 million downloads in the first two weeks.
