Norton Internet Security 2008 - Time for Another Look?

I have never been a big fan of past versions of Norton (Symantec) Internet Security products, but I recently had a presentation from the product manager of the product, who discussed the newest version and how it's changed over its predecessors.

Any IT administrator can tell you that previous versions of this product had two HUGE drawbacks:

1. Resource Usage - The product would use up huge amounts of RAM and CPU.
2. Uninstallation failures - Chances are that uninstallation would cause even more problems for your system than you had prior to installing it.

It's my understanding that the core of the latest version (2008) has been totally rewritten, minimizing the resource usage, correcting the uninstaller bugs and adding many new and important features to properly protect a home/consumer system.

I certainly hope that this is the case. I plan to evaluate this version, and hopefully it will pass muster. If so, I would look forward to recommending it to my clients who want to deploy it.
