Symantec does it again

Symantec have taken over another company, this time Altiris who supply asset management software.

Our first reaction is "fix your existing problems before buying more". Symantec's core products, notably Norton Anti Virus are failing badly and losing market share. It appears Wall Street agrees with us according to Australian IT.

One has to wonder what parallel universe these executives live in. It seems inconceivable they can be ignorant of how badly their brand is being damaged in the market place. Yet, instead of fixing the problems, they just blindly continue.
