I was part of Symantec when we were acquired. I didn’t agree with all Broadcoms moves, but they empowered us to really cut the fact and focus on what we were good at.

Cut the fat, I think you mean.

Not sure if that was a typo, eggcorn, or pun on truth and fiction post-acquisition...

Thank you, I did indeed mean cut the fat. I need to cut the fat on my fat fingers!

I was very surprised when the product quality went up, for the Symantec software I use.

[phpisthebest]

To be fair, prior to broadcom purchase symantec was not known fo high product quality

In the sysadmin world, Backup Exec and Norton products are meme's at this point, examples of the worst kind of software

so I am not sure how it could have gone down in quality

The consumer grade Symantec software and enterprise Symantec software were always different.

Norton never had any real bearing on SEP.

The consumer side of Symantec was not sold to Broadcom and became Norton Lifelock.
