Not to pick, but what does this have to do with firewalls, IDS or NFR's
ability to function as advertised? This is like saying "his product

no relevance.

Hummm...
You flame Marcus, state his product sucks without providing any backup
data and also mention your involvement with a different IDS product.
IMHO this statement sounds pretty "personal". Its certainly not
technical.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. Its just a bummer when
people take a personal grudge and try and pass it off as technical
content. Especially in a public forum.
