which is best is relative. they all provide similar services, applied in
different ways and each have their strengths.  I've messed with most of them
and think the Netscreen stands out in terms of VPN performance.  Your needs
analysis should help you prioritize features and guide you in choosing a
solution.

i think the netscreen 10s are now available with 100mb interfaces.  confirm
with a regional sales rep.  Ballpark costs are $4000 for a 10 and $12,000
for a 100 w/ SW and HW support agreement.

good luck.byron

Budget isn't limited.
Security is important, but I guess for everybody. Also useability, means
simplified policy configuration and management.
Netscreen has 10Mbit, we want 100Mbit. How about Raptor?
We want the "best bang for the buck".

  Could you tell us a little about your needs?  i.e., do you need 
anything the NetScreen-100 does that the -10 doesn't do?  WHy a PIX 
515 and not 520?

  The real question shouldn't be "which is best?" but "which is best 
for your needs and/or budget?"
