I had the same issue with a smallish agency and after defining criteria and scoring qualified courses of action, I determined that cots/appliances where the most cost effective and management (in the stuffed shirt sense of the word) 'friendly' solutions. The Google Search Appliance (I would avoid the mini because you might be shocked by the number of documents you really have), and Vivisimo (vivisimo.com) were my top choices. For extensibility and access control via ldap my recommendation was Vivisimo over Google, but management choose Google and it wasn't a bad choice. It's tough to match that 'bang for the buck' even if you are a good developer or have one your staff.
i don't understand why this was moderated 'troll'. I guess someone disagrees with you. i don't think i would have modded you up, but to call it a 'troll' is absurd.

It seems to really come from a defunct company named Thinking Machines which appears to have been mostly absorbed by Sun (at least the brains of the company)

duh.
make sure you look at the lazer very closely

who knew those things were as useful as tricorders? "Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor not a crazy DIY geek!" (said lovingly toward diy geeks...)
"not very hard at all"?
try rubbing it.

for a second there I thought it said FISTO not FESTO.
I wonder if they invited that delightful Pauly Shore like they did for the Biosphere Documentary?
