Bing Vs. Apple Vs. Google

Okay, the internet is full of idiots. Rupert Murdoch wants to charge for all his online content. These two statements may or may not be related.

But, the hero idiot of our blog posting here went to Bing and searched for "Why are Windows Expensive?".

Then he complains that it comes up with "Why are Macs so expensive".

For one, it is a great way to force people to actually search on Bing!

Now for the twenty questions

Maybe because "Windows" is a family of products?

Maybe because Windows is not expensive? (Alright, that was self-contradictory. Like that is news).

Maybe because Macs are expensive?

What happens if you go to Google and type: "Why is Google so expensive"?

It proves you are an ignoramus.

Okay, offending your own readers != good for blog stats

charging your readers = ?

Anyway, as a way to castigate myself:

Alright, now go forth and multiply (your searches that is..)

On the Bing o' Rama:
