Thumbs up

I've just replaced my old P3 firewall with a new Soekris Net5501-70. I went this route because I wanted something smaller and needed to replace an old desktop PC with not only bad drives, but also a bad (and loud!) fan.

Soekris is discontinuing the older models, the new faster 5501 is very well supported by OpenBSD 4.3. It's actually overkill for a home firewall.

KD85 is definitely the way to go if you're in Europe, or want a rackmount chassis, burn-in, and support.
