12 million is not a lot of money all things considered.  Which is one reason
to be careful when selecting a security vendor.  You want one that will be
around in the future.  This is one reason why my organization passed on
purchasing Blink from eEye.  That plus the fact that we found the product to
be completely unusable and it does not offer effective protection and the
blue screens it caused when running with certain applications was a nice
touch but not one we wanted on our network.

We are a large health care provider, our pilot group was 2500 systems and we
have opted to go with the McAfee solution, while it was not perfect it was
no where near as bad as the eEye offering and at least it didn't crash our
systems.  Trust me on this one, we spent a lot of time in our lab testing
these things and you would be surprised that once you actually get Blink to
work, how insecure and even worse how unstable your system is.
