Yes Webkit has much wider use and support and it's great that it's open source and wide usage means more compatibility, but Presto is usually at the top of speed rankings as well and both Presto and Webkit pass Acid3.
Probably should have clarified; I'm not knocking Presto at all, it's just that nobody uses Opera, for whatever reason. Of the big 3: webkit, gecko, and trident; webkit's easily the best.
