They want to sell the solution to others and they want to sell their hardware.. I would think Microsoft with its Bing should be more fearful of this than Google..

The are specifically highlighting Blue Gene, to be able to run this and Blue Gene happens to run Linux as well IBMs own proprietary OS.. This would be enough to demonstrate to the world that Windows is Weak sauce ..

Google could possibly end up buying this solution and integrating it into their search engine tech or as in the FAQ this could be used like the Star Trek (tv series / film) computer system.. Seriously my hat off to IBM, this is what I consider awesome tech..

I very much doubt IBM would enter the search engine tech. ]]>Jun 17th 2010 8:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/17/ibms-watson-is-really-smart-will-try-to-prove-it-on-jeopardy/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/17/ibms-watson-is-really-smart-will-try-to-prove-it-on-jeopardy/
...because it'd be cheap to setup racks of supercomputers just to give people good search results?

Call me when they have a business model that says they can pay for a venture like that with simple ads on the page.
