I agree with balakk on all of his points, since that's when i started using Opera too, around version 2. It still is the most complete browser experience without requiring any extensions.
Another thing that makes me stick to it is the integrated mail client. It's extremely minimal, out of the way if you don't need it. My browser is always open, so having a built in client, that indexes my email, and is searchable even if i'm offline is definitely awesome. I don't need to use Thunderbird, etc, since the minimal features are all i need. Give it a spin!
