When are MSDN and MSN search not going to suck?

Crap. What a pain in the ass. The most effective way to search MSDN is to go to Google and search. Why can't MSDN search its own content and present it more effectively than Google? I know they have more domain knowledge about the content and at least some additional metadata that Google isn't privy to. What gives?

Then there's MSN search. It's come a long way but it still doesn't touch Google. MSN search result seem to be far more motivated by revenue than quality of results.

Sigh.
