I did a search for "PENIS" in both this new MS engine, and google.
Results?
MS: 1-9 of 175,371,282 containing PENIS (0.13 seconds)
Google: Results 1 - 10 of about 48,400,000 for PENIS [definition]. (0.11 seconds)
So, uhm. Yes.
However, seeing as how google isn't microsoft, I think I'll keep using google.
I mean, the MS engine has like 50x the results, but seriously, who the hell is going to use more than, oh, 120 or so results? And yes, it's faster (on a per-result basis), but again, when you're measuring the difference in percentages of a second, WHO f*****g CARES.

also btw the image search sucks, searching in MS for lollerskates (image search) got ONE result, and it was a picture of a DSL modem (wtf?).
Google, however, found 32, and the topmost one was relevant.
Google did not however find the picture of the DSL router.

Yes I did notice that, however if you look at the second picture, it has just as relevant of a name, and MS did NOT find it.

I did a search on something a bit more specific then penis, namely, New Jersey's US Senator, Jon Corzine.
On Google I got 101,000 results in 0.29 seconds for 'Jon Corzine'.
On MSN I got 27,092 results in 0.10 seconds.
Furthermore, my Google results seemed to be a bit more relevant, although I found this amusing website on MSN search: http://www.zug.com/pranks/senator/senator_corzine.html where the Senator responds to a prank letter.
