200 | 0 | my only complaint ( really more of an observation ) is that the outside finish of the ipod is rather delicate , so i am going to get a case for mine so it doesn 't get all scratched up . |
201 | 0 | if there were any complaints i have , they are marginal , but one is apples ' proprietary set-up for music files , their incompatibility with other music services ( i . e . napster ) is down right wrong . |
202 | 0 | also , some other mp3 players such as the nitrus allow you to play wma ( windows media audio ) files , whereas the ipod does not . |
203 | 0 | as with most headphones that come with any type of music player , i recommend throwing these into the nearest river , unless you like having hard , round pieces of plastic in your ears . |
204 | 0 | because steve jobs is a twisted individual and he made sure that he ruined this device by giving it an unrepeatable 18 month battery . |
205 | 0 | this was obviously a conspiracy as it is freak in ' easy to manufacture a device with replaceable batteries ! . ! . |
206 | 0 | however , in my mind , $299 is a lot to pay for a device that will only last 18 months . |
207 | 0 | looks and durability : i realize many people are fond of the minimalist white interface . |
208 | 0 | the biggest red flag for me was the fact that although my cousin 's player was relatively new , it was riddled with scratches . |
209 | 0 | battery : compared to the other players on the market , the ipod has one of the worst batteries around . |
210 | 0 | maybe this new design is more durable than the last , but i kind of doubt it . |
211 | 0 | we can start by losing the shiny miracle-material cover that you can literally scratch just by looking at it wrong , and thus eliminate the need for third-party " asking " protective covers for an extra thirty bucks . |
212 | 0 | first of all , i 've never been big on earbuds - they 're just not that comfortable . |
213 | 0 | and if you 're a mac user like me , they 've naturally made sure you have no viable alternative . |
214 | 0 | however , the battery life isn 't as good as i would like . |
215 | 0 | cons breaks easily . |
216 | 0 | hard drive screws up occasionally |
217 | 0 | this is only a problem at night , during the day the screen is very easy to see . |
218 | 0 | the only problem is the battery life . |
219 | 0 | apple 's ipod battery replacement service costs $100 ! . |
220 | 0 | i have read the installation instructions for both nis 2004 and navy 2004 prior to installation , but still ended up with the same result . . . junk software . |
221 | 0 | but if i installed either one of these norton products , neither works after installation ? . |
222 | 0 | i have used norton for the past 5 years and for the last 2 years , the software has gotten more and more disgraceful . |
223 | 0 | i am glad that i do not work for norton . |
224 | 0 | after 4 attempted installs , i have finally given up . |
225 | 0 | during install , nis would either freeze or not reboot properly when asked to do so . |
226 | 0 | the ms scandisk would appear due to manual shutdown and would only scan to the 2nd bar , over and over ( up to 1 hr , i then shut it down and used go back ) . |
227 | 0 | i have never had this problem with any other software on my computer . |
228 | 0 | being a past norton customer , i consider this to be a slap to my face . |
229 | 0 | buying software that can not be installed normally and being put into the position of having a non-working computer . |
230 | 0 | norton has been on a downhill slid recently with their products , but with this one , they have fallen off the cliff . |
231 | 0 | as a loyal customer of norton/symantec products , i purchased internet security 2004 as a software firewall and could not be any more dissatisfied with the product ( and hence the one star rating ) . |
232 | 0 | yeah - this program protects your computer all right - by locking you off the internet . |
233 | 0 | other than that it is all the same except the new updates . |
234 | 0 | so far i haven 't had so much complaints except that i still haven 't mastered how to scandisk when using internet security . |
235 | 0 | too bad the product is cumbersome and intertwined trying to do so much at one time . |
236 | 0 | sometimes a suite is not a good deal and all you get is a bundle of headaches . |
237 | 0 | norton internet security 2004 is one of the more buggy implementations . |
238 | 0 | this product has virtually all the same installation problems . |
239 | 0 | for purposes of clarity , here is my review from that product , edited to be appropriate for this product , since , for the most part , they share many of the same problems . |
240 | 0 | this version of internet security 2004 , is beyond hope . |
241 | 0 | they are a royal pain to install , and don 't function properly once finally installed -- if you can install them at all . |
242 | 0 | the biggest problem is the installation . |
243 | 0 | also if you do manage to get it installed , any problems with liveupdate or with system works will also affect the functionality and/or the process of updating internet security . |
244 | 0 | i 've had to install and uninstall them four or five times so far , and i 've not to get either product working properly . |
245 | 0 | first , it serious , serious installation problems . |
246 | 0 | back in may 2004 , when i first reviewed this , it had taken me over 16 hours to install and run . |
247 | 0 | almost from the beginning , liveupdate would not function . |
248 | 0 | first , it failed whenever connecting to get updates . |
249 | 0 | when i finally got it working , it only worked properly for many a month . |
250 | 0 | the next problem was that it didn 't recognize all the installed components , so it would not update them , most notably and importantly , virus definitions . |
251 | 0 | but this doesn 't make up for it 's innumerable other short-comings , the biggest of which is the inability to download any updates due to problems with liveupdate . |
252 | 0 | the other annoyance with this that you have to remove every single remnant of previous version of norton systemworks before you installs this . |
253 | 0 | warning ! . the windows " remove program " feature does not do a good job of this , and neither does norton 's own removal program . |
254 | 0 | a lot of " fragments " were left in the registry , and it the norton system folders . |
255 | 0 | if you have an older version of " internet security " installed , you may also need to remove it as well before proceeding with systemworks install . |
256 | 0 | you also need to go in and manually remove many symantec files from the registry . |
257 | 0 | as of october , 2004 , these products are not working and i 'm ready to demand a refund from symantec . |
258 | 0 | i just uninstalled systemworks and internet security for at least the fifth time due to functionality issues . |
259 | 0 | once again it won 't reinstall , even with online and email assistance from symantect technicians . |
260 | 0 | the best thing to do with this version , is to leave it on the store shelf . it doesn 't work , and will cost you an enormous amount of your time , not to mention your hard earned dollars . |
261 | 0 | personally , i may never buy symantect products again . |
262 | 0 | avoid this product at all costs . |
263 | 0 | there are some highs to the 2004 edition , but mostly lows . |
264 | 0 | the program brings more problems than a virus , albeit not as major problems , just not what you expect for 70 bucks . |
265 | 0 | i had a question about the pros and cons of turning off the norton firewall vs . the windows firewall , and waited 45 minutes to speak with a tech support representative because i did not have a " customer priority id number . " |
266 | 0 | then when i went to norton 's website to obtain a priority id number per the instructions i had been given , i couldn 't find a way to get one . |
267 | 0 | so i e-mailed the online tech support with that simple question , and got a reply which was totally unresponsive ( it looked as though they didn 't actually read the e-mail and just sent back a few boilerplate paragraphs ) . |
268 | 0 | and , when you think about it , it 's insulting that norton requires its customers to jump through these hoops -- anyone who can provide proof of purchase , whether on the phone or online ( what if your computer is down ? . ) , should have equal priority . |
269 | 0 | stay away from this product ! . |
270 | 0 | i don 't know what 's happened to norton , but 2004 is absolute garbage . |
271 | 0 | the customer support is pathetic . |
272 | 0 | i have found too many bugs in norton internet security professional to recommend it to any one without extreme patience and experience . |
273 | 0 | this product is absolutely not ready for release . |
274 | 0 | it is buggy , slow and basically frustrates the heck out of the user . |
275 | 0 | i am an it professional and have used norton for years , but this product is a complete and utter dud . |
276 | 0 | it 's a rip off if one buys norton internet security and antivirus . |
277 | 0 | nothing spectacular is done by internet security or by antivirus software . |
278 | 0 | even though i have the parental controls off it constantly starts updating them then freezes my computer . |
279 | 0 | now in october , 2004 , the firewall said i couldn 't ok anymore software to use the internet because its full . |
280 | 0 | im at full capacity ! . ! . ! . ! . i called syman tic and they said they don 't know why but i should get tech 's support at $35/hr to help ! . ! . i did call them and was on hold for 55 minutes until i hung up ! . |
281 | 0 | so , don 't buy this or upgrade . |
282 | 0 | if you currently own the 2003 version , and are looking to upgrade to the 2004 version , don 't . |
283 | 0 | there is little meaningful difference between the two versions aside from the tedious activation process , and the product is currently rather buggy and has problems running unless cleanly installed on a formatted drive . |
284 | 0 | if you are new to the market and looking to buy a symantec software product , save yourself some money and buy the 2003 version . |
285 | 0 | from day one , we 've had hangups , crashes , glitches , continual reboots , long shutdowns due to " cc app . exe " program running which is a norton program . |
286 | 0 | long reboots due to norton taking forever to boot . |
287 | 0 | we constantly got " windows virtual memory low " error messages popping up foll wed by ridiculous slowdowns and/or crashes . |
288 | 0 | norton online support does not even acknowledge this problem nor does the computer company that preloaded it on our new computer . |
289 | 0 | norton support is completely pathetic . |
290 | 0 | do not buy any home version of norton anything . |
291 | 0 | our norton internet/av 2004 was terrible right from the get go , so i 'd think that if steelworks is ok now , it should remain ok . |
292 | 0 | just the home version of norton internet/av has too many glitches and problems to even remotely bother with . |
293 | 0 | i am an advanced computer user , so i can not even imagine how a new or novice user would ever get this terrible program to work ! . |
294 | 0 | seems the " program scan " feature did not find the exe file for outlook ! . |
295 | 0 | like most of their solutions ( which first blame other applications for errors ) , the tech persons line was that this was probably a microsoft error - it was not . |
296 | 0 | it was a symantec error . |
297 | 0 | after a recent update , i can no longer open more then 1 browser window . |
298 | 0 | i 've searched the program and their online tech support ( worthless ) and have found no solutions . |
299 | 0 | this is definitely one of those products , especially as the company is leaning more towards making a profit . |
