LOL - as usual I will respond with Norton's favorite answer - "When it is ready!"

Sorry, I could not resist - actually I have no idea!

 

Will there be a 2015 or will Norton do like Microsoft and leave everyone mystified?

 

It's probably the retailers of boxes that want a date on it ......

Any way I expect some new fixes like in 21.2.0.38 version and back the local vault. If not no surprise for the new version.

Time will answer…

A new UI that doesn’t look like a 6yr old designed it

He'll be 7,   by then...........

PMSL, Kudos for that :slight_smile:

:smileywink:

There's a rumor that PC World has already awarded it the 2015 antivirus product of the year.

This beats their record of having waited several days after NIS 2014 was released.

lol

Maybe ... maybe not ....

I think you need to get your spacebar fixed

and I'm thinking that they should release a fix for Windows 8/8.1 users regrading the quick start-up issue.

Please remember they only fired "ol'-cheapthink-breath" (the former CEO) on March 20th of this year.  It's going to take them a while to bring new hires (even if they're competent) up-to-speed.

 

 

Then there's the issue of whether or not Engineering or Marketing is going to be in charge of the new feature set.

 

If Marketing remains in charge - my guess is it's going to be same-old/same-old - probably with an even-more-infantile UI - that sacrifices functionality to look the same as the SmartPhone UI.  (blech!)

 

Furthermore, because Marketing probably won't admit its idiocy - there will not be a proper return to local control of the Vault for Identity Safe.

 

 

Hopefully, Engineering will take back control of the Product - and somebody with real-world-smarts will take over control of the NAV/NIS/N360 Product Line.  At that point, sanity may return.  I fervently hope so.  We will all have to wait and see.

I'm not worried what the UI looks like. I'm concerned what's under the hood. :smileywink:

This is your personal opinion and can also be shared by many.
Some would still have Widows 95 (would remain fossilized), others would opt for new technologies such as cloud storage and everything else...
IMO, smartphones are becoming like computers and not vice versa.
In the past BSOD, data loss and blocks of computers during startup was almost normal. Today these have become a rarity, So Welcome, New Technology!
