Agreed.. a year is a long time which is why I didn't say it flat out
sucked rocks.  To be fair, at the time, it did beat Cisco's scanner for
vulns found.  Net Sonar found no vulnerabilities on a stock SP4 install of
NT Server (no hardening done).  I am sure both tools have improved, but I
don't hear anyone talking about what great products they are.  Most of the
fuss is over Nessus, Internet Scanner, and CyberCop.  I have actually even 
found one person that says they like Retina...  =)

I understand the draw of the network security field and why eveyrone wants
to buy in, but I believe a company should focus on it's core competency.
I think WebTrends makes great reporting tools (I'm sure that will spark an
argument...), and Cisco makes great routers, but neither is a network
security company. Do many things "OK", or do one thing really well.
