My guess would be that since Bing is by Microsoft, they probably added positive auto-search on windows 8.

Not a strait comparison: Bing search string in example shown in post #1 is "Windows 8 is a", Google search string is "Windows 8 is".

That said, my own highly unscientific research on the UK-centric Bing site came out even worse for Windows 8! :D
