The problem with MSN search is the same problem Microsoft has had in many of its products...over-reliance on the mouse.

Now, with Google I can define my search terms, get a definition, search for results for a certain OS, etc. just by entering the correct syntax into the search box, or by going to the correct subpage.

MSN does most of the same things, but it requires too many mouse clicks. The URL is also too long.

Is Google better today? Probably.
Will Microsoft catch up as they usually do and have done lots of times in the past? Again, probably.
