That stopped some time and and it's now extremely frustrating as the main article describes. I'm sure I read that putting the search in quotes is like the old + but it doesn't seem to be, rather just priority to that search. I feel this is more a case of Google thinking it knows better. I have a similar problem with ebay, if I'm looking for an "HP Z430" then I'll get pages of other items where Z430 isn't even in the description. I can see some value in searching for alternative spellings and related items but there should still be the ability to be exact in your search terms.
