Mac friendly search engine?

can someone recommend a mac friendly search engine?

I like yahoo... but, im sick of most of yahoos features NOT working on a mac....

a big company like yahoo, you would think I could use windows media player on my mac and view videos at yahoo....

No such thing.

this is getting real old...

If not mac friendly, could someone recommend a good search engine I may like? Ive used yahoo and hate to change, but.. they p me off.

google.com works for me, it's basically what Yahoo licenecs for results. So consider it a low-fat alternative. Yahoo has turned into bloatware.

google.com/mac finds everything Mac related.
There is also http://www.google.com/bsd

More here:
http://www.google.com/options/specialsearches.html

There were also some funpages with all writings in google having hacker slang (1337, you know), or elmer fudd, but I don't know the urls anymore
