Ha!  I like how the Bing results are almost completely wrong (with the exception of one lonely A1000 pic) and Google's are almost entirely right.  This reminds me that I should go back and tweak our filters to block Bing on the office domain... can't have people getting this kind of wrong information!  ;)

Bing owned by Microsoft.  No wonder the results were terrible. I use google  for most part.
