More Free PR

Ok so I read this at first because I've been researching the market for this type of system for a few months now (to replace an aging system). About half way through reading I thought "this isn't an article it's a copy/paste job from Mirapoint's PR dept". Even the title is so blatant it's scary.. might as well have thrown in the word ultimate

"Mirapoint - the ULTIMATE appliance of security?".

Laying out the FUD & then parading in with "a perfect example".. come on. Was that Bloor or Whore Research?

I love the Reg but your readers are going to evaporate if this crap keeps showing up on the site (as it has lately).

No reflection on Mirapoint Razorgate which is a good product, but if I want PR I know where the Press Release link is on their site.
