Hi!

I've used both PIX and FW-1.
In short: The PIX is easyer and cheaper to set up, you dont need any
knowledge about installing the OS.(PIX comes installed in a box), but it
lacks some features that FW-1 have. 
On the other hand, FW-1 has a far more easy interface for managing the
firewall.
I could go on forever comparing those two, but i'm not going to. Read more
on their websites.

Cheers!
