i just dont like all the setting toooooo many of them

its confusing

firefox is established and is easier to use, i never use opera or ie or safari for windows because firefox is easier to use and has all the plugins addons i would need

firefox is a hog for resources but not an issue for me

i looked interesting but not for me just yet

I use Opera, and it is quite easy to use, faster than Firefox, and quite customizable. It has Widgets and mouse guestures and skins and looks cool. It also has a built in bit-torrent, which works very well.
I encourage people to use Opera! I've had nothing but slowness and nuisance from Firefox.

Back on topic, this browser looks interesting only by the fact that it has two rendering engines; does this mean it takes more resources? If there is a Linux version then I'll give it a go, see how well it fares against Opera.

Konqueror uses a render engine similar to that of Apple Safari. It's just that the close resemblance to a file-manager that kills it whenever I use Linux. KDE is a preferred desktop environment though.

Also, you might care to know that Opera release new builds weekly on their blog, so we always have fixes and new features to play with each time
