I look to MSN for freshness when I need CURRENT info on a particular subject, I'm afraid the sandbox has doomed G$ to historical type searches which they are pretty good at. Different engines, different strengths, I have no problem adjusting to "one size doesn't fit all".

I also use different OS's depending on what their strengths are, XP can do some things OSX can't and linux can do things neither of the other two can't. Whoo hoo, the search market is diversifying, thats a good thing for everyone, look for the strengths in every engine that can help you.

BTW, Ballmer was probably addressing the biz end of search, advertising.

Search in itself is not a business.
