Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hi,

I've a local LAN consisting of about 150 machines. I'm using a Linux machine as the gateway machine which inturn connects to two different ISPs. My question is can a Linux based machine match the performance of a hardware based routers provided by Cisco,... OR is my decision to go for a Linux based solution is a wrong one?.

Is there so much difference between these two solutions?

Can I achieve the same performance using a high end PC and Linux?

I'm asking this because one guy told me that my decision to go for a Linux based solution is a wrong one and it can never match the performance of Routers provided by Cisco.

Thanks
