IT Angle

Microsoft no doubt made a sizable "donation" to the Symantec "Christmas fund".

Whatever happened, I do wonder how the heck this will improve customer experiences. What are they changing?

Wow i understand now

Joke

Microsoft had formerly held a contract with Veritas to license the software, which helps operating systems manage large amounts of data.

Given the quality of Veritas's products as of late it make perfect sense why Vista can't copy shit anywhere in a reasonable amount of time. I know Volume Manager has little to do with copying files over the network; i was just poking a little fun :)

Symantec doest protest too much
