See the difference? Google shows the Apple Cupertino HQ - a lovely, shiny building probably full of iPods. MSN on the other hand shows an apparently empty field. Not as much as a black turtle-necked jumper remains of Apple's headquarters. This could be no more than an old picture taken before Cupertino was built or a glimpse of an imagined future.

Must be using very old satelite photos judging by the twin towers bit  |
Think Google are using images that can be up to 4 years old in places but MSN look to be using older images than that.
