After less than 50 queries my first thought is MSN as target the wrong competitor.
The average results in competive words is not so bad but with specific query it is not very good as Google or Yahoo.
The add value of MSN
The integration of Encarta answer is weird. You can have the date of birth for Matisse but not for Dali, the date of death of Beethoven but not the one of John F. Kennedy ?
I think MSN will hurt a lot more AskJeeves than Google or Yahoo!
