There, as you and Nick both stated, is the problem. Which way will these companies turn? While this continues going forward, other companies slide there solutions under the door. It dosen't matter if it is the best, first, or worst. What matters at this point is that it is available. Factor in how many people have no concept of what computer security should look like-"you mean my ad aware and spam protection aren't enough?" crowd, and these offerings suit those folks needs. It does not help that Dell and the others aren't promoting as hard as they could. It certainly doesn't help Wave when we have zero mainstream press coverage about what their products can do. There are tons of PC's sold every year, but what we on this board continue to overlook- except for this statement "it has to be invisible, seemless"- and forget is that a great majority of folks are computer illiterate, using their own personal PC for little more than e-mail. Look at most people in a workplace. Other than inter office mail, e-mail and a program that is specific to their everyday work tasks most are clueless. I think this fact gets lost of most people in this industry because they are around it everyday. Not to pick on anyone, but we even see it here with the inabillity to copy and past an article. The benefits of this product need to be touted in the mainstream press and hopefully, HOPEFULLY, with the impending release of Vista and the Seagate FDE drives there should- be no reason that this company has a cloak over it anymore. If it still operates in this fashion come next summer everyone here needs to question why they stayed around so long.
