Do not buy any Symantec (and Microsoft) software[ Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#6)

I stopped buying Symantec products way back in 2004 when they started introducing Product Activation into their softwares. Now I just use AVG antivirus which is fast and consume little resources. I do not have a piece of Symantec software installed on my PC.

Also, I love PartitionMagic when it was a standalone product. After it was acquired by Symantec there has been no further updates to it and was just shoved into a corner.

I recommend we all stop buying Symantec and Microsoft softwares. These 2 companies do not care about home users anymore. I certainly won't buy their products anymore (and I will never pay to "upgrade" to Windows Vista).
