According to BetaNews, Opera will make a new idea of surfing with it's Extensible Rendering Architecture (ERA) technology into its own rendering engine in next release.

It is said that this technology will make the web page rendering effectively regardless of screen size, eliminating the horizontal scrolling and easier to printing.

I have 7.60 Technology Preview 3 and know of a page where it scrolls too far to the right, I'll try that out and report back.

EDIT:

On the page in question, Mozilla 1.7.3 with a screen resolution of 1024x768, there is some horizontal scrolling.

However the same page when viewed in Opera 7.60 TP3, shows no horizontal scrolling, but the right border of the box consisting of Google text ads on the right side of the page, is chopped off.

It is a preview (beta) release though and I haven't read anything to indicate when 7.60 will be officially released.

Opera has also issued a press release about ERA.

Another site I have tested, displays perfectly in Opera 7.60, while Mozilla 1.7.3 requires horizontal scrolling as the page does not display correctly.
