Exactamundo!
Get richer quick plan for execs:
1) Competition coming
2) Increase prices, therefore revenues beforehand
3) Get a few market analysts to tout the stock
...
7) Cash in options, take golden parachutes out the door, just as competitor enters market

These guys ought to be investigated. Well, at least I haven't bought Norton for a while. McAfee at home and office right now, and will be looking for a cheaper or free alternative for the one remaining Windows box...rest are now Linux.
