This must be an age-old question, but I'm looking for anecdotal
experience.  

Based on price, value and performance, I am leaning towards the Pix 515
version 5.0 over Checkpoint on Solaris or Nokia (the latter being
prohibitively expensive, as far as I can see).

A few questions for (primarily) Pix users:

- Can you open ipsec tunnels to Checkpoint boxes?  Many of our clients
use Checkpoint and management is worried about being incompatible for
extranet purposes (hence they want me to buy Checkpoint)

- Why did you personally choose Pix over Checkpoint if you looked at
both?

- Are you using the 5.0 release already?  Any problems?

I'll summarize replies.  Quick response is appreciated as I need to
decide on this by tomorrow morning.


Thanks.
