Zak Islam seems to be the number one hater of competitors of Apple. I'm near finished reading these articles from him. Why do I keep clicking these links.

oh dear Microsoft... if a Russian search engine is beating yours things are not going well at all

All the more reason to scoff at Bing commercials, and the product in general.

Apples to oranges... nobody outside their home countries has ever heard of those other two.

I don't think he's a real person but a pseudo contributor created by TH to fan flames in the comments section.

I feel bad for microsoft burning billions on Bing, yet no dent in the market. The only time i used Bing was Bing cashback from fall 2008-summer 2010, other than that, nothing would persuade me.

"In Russia, the internet searches you!"

In case you haven't realized, Yahoo search is powered by Bing. So those 2 should really combine and effectively make Bing 3rd, shouldn't it?

Microsoft just can't seem to catch a break lately.

In his defense...if he is a real person...there was no mention of Apple in this title, nor the article. But you can bet money that every article with the name Apple in it (particularly pro-Apple) is by Zak Islam...if that is a real person. I only click on Apple articles because I enjoy reading the anti-Apple hate comments...and occasionally making a few, myself. I especially enjoy reading everytime Apple loses to its competitors for any reason...particularly in patents.

How did Bing ever make it to the top 4 in the first place. Its a horrible search engine. I'm a microsoft fanboy, I love everything about them, except Bing. Sometimes I wonder if they even use their own search engine...

No love for duckduckgo? It' doesn't track you, and it's not a popularity contest like google's crappy ranking system.

Zak appears to specialize in Apple which has become much more significant to the technological market in the last decade.

Regarding trolling - the Apple and Linux fans have been taking it easy while watching the Windows fans battle it out over Win8/Metro/Surface. The fact that such a battle is occurring is itself interesting in light of the stagnation of the PC market.

Luckily, no one cares and MS doesn't build their entire business around a search engine........

Hey Zak, go jump off a cliff...

I actually like Bing. I've made something like $120 in Amazon gift cards through Bing Rewards just for doing my daily searches. I've compared it and Google side by side and there's really very little difference, so of course I go with the engine that helps fund my love for video games.
