Huh? .. the FWSM (which is PIX and you can have 4 of them in a chassis) 
can handle 100 intefaces, 5gpbs, 100k CPS, and 1M concurrent per blade.

Show me an OpenBSD system that can handle 400 interfaces, 20gbps, and 4M 
connections (and can do HSRP, etc).

(I'm not trying to start an open-source "holy war" on a newsgrop .. I 
use pf too, where I need the granularity -- just not on the whole network).
