Just read an email describing a class action lawsuit settlement by Symantec/Norton. Its true as far as I can tell.
Seems that some norton purchasers in the USA are entitled to a $15.00 coupon or a huge $2.50 cash settlement.

Links on Symantec site:

has a link to the "Heverly-Norton Case ":

Hope this is OK to post. If not, sincere apologies, and just zap it right out of the aether.
The SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-)

Nothing new really so many companies probably have price issues and if they were eyeballed close enough they could have their day in court too.

The whole subscription thing stinks anyways, maybe people will learn to support companies like Alwil (Avast), Avira (AntiVir), Grisoft (AVG), etc., that at least offer full featured freeware products.
Complexity of incoherent design.
