tipo Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Reports abound this morning that Microsoft may be taking a look at Symantec. After Intel's unexpected purchase of McAfee recently, prevailing sentiment is that other major players may all make similar moves. The rumors stem from analyst Katherine Eggbert's statement that "without a strategic sale or break-up near-term, a high-level management change may perhaps be the next step demanded by anxious shareholders."read more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HX1 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 This would not really surprise me.. Like McAfee.. Norton had a bad reputation for years when it cam to operational efficiency... not many people know or would even chance going back... Have seen a lot of this going around.. not really surprising though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalaffa Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 It's an old rumour (09/09/2010). Symantec share price has continued to rise though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaLeigh Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Don't laugh at me, but I am very happy with MS Security Essentials. It really has served me very well ever since it came out. Heath is right about Norton. I'm one of those who will probably never try Norton again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioActive Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Well, to be fair, Symantec has improved their products significantly, now the Norton family is one of THE best security suites available and surprisingly one of the lightest too!
