I’m still stunned at how bad Windows search is. They’ve been trying to get this right since they begun development of Windows Vista nearly 20 years ago. Meanwhile in OS X land, their 16-year-old search implementation has always been so good that in a lot of cases, the file manager isn’t necessary to find even the most obscure and poorly organized documents. |

Company politics interfered with the work on database as file system, one of Longhorn's greater ideas. I can't remember the specifics, it's on Slashdot somewhere, can't find it anymore.
