Aero Glass User interface was introduced in Windows Vista and continued in Windows 7 also. Currently only two browsers support Aero: Google Chrome and Internet Explorer and it is expected that Opera 11 will have Aero Style.
But you don’t need to wait until Opera 11 to enjoy Aero style tabs since Rafael Oliveira has found a hack to enable Aero in Opera 9 and Opera 10. He has also made available the Aero enabled Opra skin which you can download and apply on your Opera browser to enjoy Aero Glass style tabs.
Along with the Aero Hack, Rafael has also added a hack to remove title bar from Opera to emulate Google Chrome style.
