One more reason to hold them in contempt. Suppressing information, *shock*

If google did that it'd be funny, when microsoft does it it's a conspiracy.

you're right - there is a conspiracy against that great and noble company, Microsoft, who haven't fucked over anyone ever and are committed to doing charidy work for altruistic purposes.
Bill Gates, a world apologises.

I think what you've found is known as an 'easter egg'.

Isn't an easter egg a bonus feature rather than something missing?

yes those microsoft photos are from a much earlier time period

google is only going to be updating once every 18months or so; and even then in the popular places
you guys have way too much time

Have a gander at New York and you'll see the Twin Towers are still there. Yay!

What's the hidden feature? I'm sorry but I don't seem to know to what you were referring in your first post... The lack of the Apple building is the Easter Egg? Or that Google has it?
