Depends on what your need is from the internet, I guess.
It is also a very effective filter. Not having all that junk in my screen
filters out the crappy pages. If a page doesn't work, I give it a second chance
by letting Opera display the page as plain as possible, not even allowing table.
Usually that solves problems. But if a page doesn't display usable in that bare
mode, I simply move on to the next result on the Google SERP's.
Besides that, it just shows what _can_ go wrong with pages that rely on scripts
or flash or images, without the author and designer providing any appropriate
alternative for them. I like to get reminded every once in a while :-)
