"Our gross margins [on electronic downloads] have been over 90% as a result of no requirement for diskettes, software duplication, packaging, and physical distribution. What's more, because documentation is provided with each software download, McAfee saves the significant financial and environmental costs of print and shipping materials."

An interesting fact: "New viruses are appearing at a rate of 100 per month - with a notable increase in their maliciousness."

Any MCAF shareholders or customers out there? Comments?
You can download the latest release of the industry-leading VirusScan from mcafee.com. Great product.
