Well, if your pipe to the Internet is a T1 (1.54Mbps), you won't
see any difference between 10Mbps and 100Mbps interfaces on your
firewall. But the -100 also adds things like load balancing that you
might have a need for....
I haven't had a chance to try out PIX v6.0 yet, but the web-based
GUI on the current NetScreens is much improved over older versions
and a whole lot more usable than the PIX versions I have used in the
past. *I* think it's a good choice, but that doesn't necessarily
mean it's right for you.
