And if you decide you want GigE on the inside instead of 100mbps, then
the LBB isn't going to help you anyway. An 8-port GigE switch is under
$100 these days and many systems are coming with onboard GigE interfaces
(like my Dell PowerEdge 400SC).
Although the LBB boxes are fast and easy to set up and do the job for
most people most of the time, they're certainly not as flexible as a
real firewall implementation running on Linux, OpenBSD, or any number of
other systems (I know somebody who's firewall is actually OpenVMS).
