I think that the idea that TMG is an appliance is going to be a difficult concept for people to grasp. It doesn't look like an appliance but it behaves like one. It's a UTM. UTM do a particular set of features. If you want something outside of the feature set then you use something else. I certainly wouldn't consider this a drawback on TMG, it's really a feature of any UTM appliance. If you want infinite flexibility then you don't buy UTM devices. Headlines are headlines and it's the state of things that if you speak negatively about Microsoft products you'll get more readers. When you have more readers you live on to write another day. The article is much more positive than negative but one would never know that from the headline. It's all about clicks. thanks, Amy Babinchak Harbor Computer Services | 248-850-8616 Mobile 248-890-1794 Web http://www.harborcomputerservices.net<http://www.harborcomputerservices.net/> Client Blog http://smalltechnotes.blogspot.com<http://smalltechnotes.blogspot.com/> Tech Blog http://securesmb.harborcomputerservices.net<http://securesmb.harborcomputerservices.net/> Buy My House: http://www.shannonrealty.com/vassar_mls_tour.html Are you an IT Pro? http://www.thirdtier.net<http://www.thirdtier.net/> From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Thomas W Shinder Sent: Tuesday, March 17, 2009 2:32 PM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Microsoft Threat Management Gateway has some drawbacks Microsoft Threat Management Gateway has some drawbacks: http://searchsecurity.techtarget.com/news/column/0,294698,sid14_gci1351077,00.html?track=sy160 Read the article and then re-read the headline.
