Assuming you wanted/needed the local search facilities of GDS:

A) Would you wait 3-4 years and pay to upgrade to Longhorn+ to use a
similar functionality?

B) Would you wait 3-4 months and pay to upgrade to Apple's Tiger to use
Spotlight?

C) Would you pay Google, say, $39.95/yr to use the search functionality
without any ads, etc?

D) Would you wait for a commercial and free alternative?

E) Would you wait for an open source alternative?

F) Would you forgo local search entirely due to its cost?
