The one million download challenge of Opera 8

An overly excited Jon S. von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software, today proclaimed at an internal company meeting that if the download numbers of the new Opera 8 Web browser reach 1 million within the first four days of the launch, he will swim from Norway to the USA with only one stop-over for a cup of hot chocolate at his mother’s house in his home country, Iceland. Opera’s communications department could obviously not resist to make such a bold and inarguably over-confident statement public.

Craazy! Would love it to happen though for both the entertainment and the sucess for the Opera browser. :P
