ok ...
You know ... I could care LESS about whether you have pertinent PRO/CON MS ... However, STICK to the subject at hand and TEST ... not just throw up na?ve statements to show how much you don't know or how biased you are.

I've now gone there and tested searches relating to several web services and sites I like and visit, even with a couple that were not in the 'main stream'. Bottom line, I really liked the information MS Search "BETA" brought back FAR MORE than what Google returned. As an added feature (?), when the web sites were found [on MS], you could easily "see more" about them (apparently additional cached pages tagged to the selection -- very nice and informative! *Especially for a beta). I did NOT get that with Google, though I haven?t tried with Yahoo yet.

I use anything that works best and returns high relevance to my searches ... be it MS, Google, Yahoo ... whoever. I personally don't care who makes it, where it's apparent that you do. I?m not pro-MS. However, it?s evident (obvious? easy to see?) you are certainly anti-MS.

Here, in what I was trying to do, MS Search "BETA" was already FAR BETTER than Google [in returned results]. I'm going to keep comparing my searches as we need more information on everyday matters. Those results, in the end, are what will determine my final "who to search with first" ... NOT ... who is making the engine.

I would also tend to agree with the other person. AT THE VERY LEAST, this should make the others get ?moving? with more relevant returns and options.
