Hello everyone, We're about to migrate to Checkpoint NG soon, and I've been tasked to gather data to determine which version of OS we will run our software on. We have already purchased 6 Dell systems (I'm unsure of specs), so the choices are Windows NT, 2000, or a Linux flavor. I'm looking for recommendations, and perhaps links to performance ratings to use as a comparison for each. Also, I'd love to hear the horror stories, so I'm not as blind sided as I was with our McAfee WebShield from months past! Thanks for your help guys.
