Wow \:o I guess I asked "THE" question. All you guys start arguing about what firewall is best. I guess it also depends on some personal experience with the different products.
I looked at several options and decided to request a Symantec SGS 1600 series demo unit.

ISA would be nice but is too expensive as is the Cisco PIX series. My knowledge about Linux and its security is too little for now and could cause serious vulnerabilities. Smoothwall is nice but has some issues with supported NIC's. The time period is also an issue because like I said we are moving to a new building. During the move we are rebuilding part of the network all has to be done by March 1st 2007. I've worked with the little brother (300 series) and the big brother (5600 series) of the Symantec SGS 1600 series. Also the 1600 series is affordable for us (we are just a small business) at a price between 1600 and 2000 euro's (19% VAT to be added to that price).
