hehe.... I'd have to agree with you there. Lot's of crappy code in slick packaging out there.

If the graphic design sucks ... probably means they are all a bunch of geeks and that the product rocks.

I don't think I could ever buy anything from a company who has uses blue comic sans over top a picture of a cat for the logo. You would think that for 300 dollars for the pro version, they could afford to high a graphic designer on contract at least.

There are even several very good open source anti-virus programs for the Linux box as well. On a Windows Box, I run Imail 7.0 which is getting more expensive with each upgrade, but is a lot easier to administer than, say Exchange. I purchased RedHat 7.3 from Best Buy for $49.00. While the software is open source, the purchase gives me a year of free updates, and that is really convenient. The Sendmail and PostFix mail servers (as well as apache and a couple of database products) are installed by default. I use Webmin for remote administration.
