Ken,

Google has several site search solutions. The free one is very easy to implement per the Google expert where I work (WebSourced/KeywordRanking). You have to be willing to accept an embedded Google logo however. I spoke with someone who has a very large site (not immense on the scale of IBM or M$, however), and in the end they selected the free tool. They choked when they heard the Google search appliance entry price, which is very expensive option in comparison. The search appliance cost is racked since it requires their hardware.

The free tool used to be called "Google Search Buddy", now "Google Free <http://www.google.com/searchcode.html>"

We are actually considering purchasing a Google search appliance for
work. Our corporate intranet has the worlds worst search engine. I
have never found a document that resembles anything I was looking for,
we need Google.

Just read that Google added synonym searching. Don't know when they added it,
though -- may be old news to some. It's not in the "Google Hacks" book, so it
hasn't been around forever.

You use the ~ operator to declare that you want to search for a term and its
synonyms.
