Searching for .NET

We're doing more investigation into supporting .NET at work. Details aside, I'm having some difficulty finding online resources because Google treats ".NET" as just "net". There is no support for regular expressions, so I can't get the search to include the ".".

Searching for "dotnet" does give me some results, but from browsing the "net" results, they're not nearly as complete.

I've found a good foundation of info at MS's own websites, but I want some independent info and am getting really annoyed.

Can anyone recommend a good strategy for online searching for ".NET"?

I mainly use msdn.microsoft.com for my .NET info, but www.gotdotnet.com is good and try searching for "Visual Studio NET". That gave me quite a bit of information.

Thanks. gotdotnet has been quite helpful!
