Neither one produced even a single post with Opera in the title?? I got a million search results that had absolutely nothing to do with Opera.

It's no wonder there are so many posts telling people to search, they probably already tried it & gave up...........

Just tried it..the regular search was completely off (makes sense since there is regular opera and its cooked into roms and etc..probably would have to do Title only search to get it right)

The Google search was fine

Probably the best way to get good search is via have members put Tags on what the topic is about...

Its not so terrible, but it would be nice to have google supported search like xda. I do really like the auto search function when opening a new thread.
There is a Google type search click on Search link on top, there is a dropdown for Google search
