Hi All,

I work with Sun/Solaris, mainly 420Rs, and same sentiment as Brain on HP; I don't want to dilute it by speaking my mind ;-). 
And I also prefer my dual Pentium III running FreeBSD at home.  All of the firewalls at work converted to FreeBSD and yet to see any problems!

IMHO, the size of the box don't matter, but the OS itself does.

Regards,
Patrick Soltani.
