Uh, I think Checkpoint does a fine job after you get past level I. I beg to differ but the support of critical firewalls in a corporate environment is slightly different than getting the macro function to work right on Word 2000.

Heck, a bunch of people will probably look at it just because Microsoft's (poor) support is so much better than Checkpoint's (words fail me) support... I suspect MS will at least figure out how to let you license the thing. I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry. -Robert At 10:57 AM 10/10/00 -0500, Ed Davidson wrote: > >Maybe it is not ready for real use right now - but they are jumping into the >market.
