Hey guys, stumbled on this one and I'm wondering what's going on with it. Pic below:

On the right you see Firefox and left is IE. Both searches were done at the exact same time and repeated. So...huh?

Different datacenters is one possibility.

Hrm...They were both done from the same computer, in the same location, at the exact same time. If it was because of different datacenters being used, why was one browser sent to a separate datacenter?

It's because Google can, and here's a thing to think about. Are the cookies on your machine shared between browsers?
