Expand article

Found some possibly relavent links to expand the "Reception" section of the article. Several editors mentioned the addition of a dedicated reception and criticism section would help the article.

Tyw7, if you find any links, how 'bout we post them here so everyone can view them. TechOutsider (talk) 21:21, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Another link

This is more reliable and less controversial than the articles used above. Definitely need to use it for the article. TechOutsider (talk) 21:49, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Windows 7

Need some more information about Windows 7 compatibility.

Merge proposal

I propose merging Norton 360 (2006-2014) into Norton 360. The legacy product information can be put into a section. It is understandable that they might be separated, given Norton Internet Security and Norton Security as intermediaries; however, I think a redirect from the current legacy article to a section in the contemporary article could remedy this discomfort.
