Wow, I wonder if they can come up with an original idea when it comes to a utility program.

Eh, I don't really care... if it does a better job of doing what it's supposed to do, then I'll use it.

looks like it's a ripoff of the google search bar and google desktop search.

has MS had an idea of their own in the last 5 years?

Just uninstalled Google Desktop :)

how does it compare to google's? what's your opinion so far?

I think it's a lot better. You have more control over what it indexes and what it does. The interface is a lot less web-like compared to Googles, and the tray toolbar is really handy.
