[X4U] Thoughts on Spotlight?

I answered my own question.

If I hit command-F in the Finder and pull up a "SEARCH" window, the  
search behaves just like spotlight, but at the bottom of the window  
is a blue bar that displays file paths just like "find" in Panther.   
So the top of the window says "Searching "Computer".

However, if I initiate a Spotlight search for the word "hospice" and  
open the "spotlight window", the heading of the window is "Spotlight:  
Hospice" and there is no path... blue bar at the bottom.
