At least I was not able to see the "results" - their site does not seem to support IE8.

In the past I've had C++ phone interview questions where some of the answers have been wrong. When this first happened I had little experience and didn't stand my ground, especially as I'd definitely got some other answers wrong. But the next time it happened I just stood my ground.
There should be no excuse for interviewers getting their own answers wrong though. They have prior access to all the knowledge.

Is it a more powerful bomb that the "Linux take over the desktop this year" bomb which got dropped regularly since 1986?

C’mon, stop for a while and think what a giant effort is to create from scratch a fully functional operating system nowadays. Thousands pieces of different hardware, hundred of technologies, development tools, office and utility packages, frameworks and appies/all the way from Win32 to DirectX/, networking, servers, gaming, UI etc. And you need to make all this crap stable and fast!!!
It looks to me like game of “chicken” from the days of cold war: You created Bing we will answer with an OS!!!
IMO Google are making a mistake and throwing money on the wind. MS are fully capable to make Bing competitive to Google, but I don’t think that Google are able to create something near to XP or Weven and their tools for reasonable period of time.
Imagine that Sony decides to start producing jet fighters - a joke right? They have the money, but they don’t have the experience.

Yes, sure – some basic OS with integrated browser, docs online, full Java and J2EE support, Oracle support, some Java based IDE, C++ compiler without comprehensive IDE and framework, some image processing application, media player and limited hardware and networking support.
The question is: are you going to replace your fully operational Windows or even Linux and all programs working on them with this new gadget? The answer is easy…

But they're not creating a new OS. All they're writing is a custom window manager for (a presumably) stripped down linux. There're jillions of existing distros that they can pick and choose from to drop it on top of.
