    Oh, I see, thanks for the info. I really don't like how Bing is trying to mimic google in their interface design, of course MS has a legacy in that domain, but surely they can come up with a minimalist interface as a search engine's supposed to be obviously and not flat out photocopy google's layout. It's not doing them any favours. Whoever had the misguided idea that to make the search accessible to people and familiar to them it has to be almost exactly the same UI as google...

    I don't see any correlation. Anand Shimpi was focused on HW. In fact, their website, especially their forum, has always been behind the times.
