You say that like they just offhandedly decided to ignore Opera.  The
more complex and dynamic a web page is, the more difficult it is to get
things up and running under different browsers.  Gmail appears to be
_very_ complex and _very_ dynamic.  I don't think their IPO took in
enough money to get Gmail working under IE, Mozilla _and_ Opera.  :)
