A comment on Google targets elderly?.
A little (maybe) inside story here
Believe it or not, I guess Google globally adjusted it's box height after Google China added 6px to its search box height.
On 13th April this year there's a post on a extremely popular & influential IT commentary news site in China
http://www.cnbeta.com/articles/81765.htm
saying that Google.cn failed to match Baidu.com because their search box is so small that people need exta time to move the mouse to focus the correct text box
6 days later Google.cn improved one of their page(specifically http://www.google.cn/hp?sp=china) accordingly
http://www.cnbeta.com/articles/82222.htm
Next on 6th October Google.cn switched to bigger search box on all of their pages, including the google.cn home page

Finally on 10th September Google globally adopted this design change
