Everything but evil that is. Coming in at No. 4, Apple. Lately they've been in the news for what they haven't done. They haven't sued Psystar. They haven't announced an iPhone. PR people take note. Stop having your companies do stuff! Up to No. 3, Yahoo. Ah yes, the little mater of the courtship of Yahoo and Microsoft certainly garnered much attention. Meaning that you can certainly guess search term No. 2. Sliding in at No. 2. Oh look at that, Microsoft. The company that didn't buy Yahoo. Too bad for the news hawks that this whole thing is over...or is it? What could possibly be bigger than Microhoo? Before we get to that, let's check in on the Top 5 search terms from Download.com. All right. Let's get to it. The No. 1 most popular search term. Of more interest to CNET searchers than Microsoft Yahoo. At No. 1, It's.... iPhone.
