That Bing challenge

So I did a Google search on "stimpy computer" and for Images, we're the first item listed!  Woohoo!  - or rather Joy!

Went to Bing and did the same search for "stimpy computer" and first two images are Nintendo game boxes for Veediots and Space Cadets. Further down is a tagged computer image which is actually a box.  Well, actually it's an eBay listing for a cardboard frame to tape on the monitor.

For me, Bing dropped a bomb.

On the positive side for Microsoft, I just recently discovered at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2014/05/20/10526823.aspx, that "Stimpy" was the code name for the "Chicago" (Windows 95) user interface!
