I'm not really sure what your point is.
Asking Symantic or McAfee is exactly what you should do, about protecting your computer.
They *will* tell you why their product is the best, because they know their product the best. Look at all the kooky comments regularly repeated here and elsewhere on here about Linux that are not true or based on a misconseption.
The reality is after the spate of TCO independent studies(sic) where everyone plays how is it funded by Microsoft. Those are the worst, because of the subterfuge. Its true a company will show bias to its own product, but if the information is *from them* you expect bias.
All there is, is information from a verity of different sources, and through discussion and/or trial determine what is best for you, and in computing thats potentially a very short time.

Excuse me, but Gibson is the pre-madonna who came out and claimed that if Windows XP with raw sockets were stipped, it would be the end of the internet as wel know it; 5 years on, and everything is peachy.
Please, don't allow drama queens to cloud your judgement when it comes to security issues; asking his opinion on security issues is like asking Symantec or McAfee on what products they sould suggest to protect an end users computer.
