I have always been very satisfied with the Sidewinder.  I feel the
exact opposite way Steve does.  I look at other firewalls and wonder why
they cannot do stuff the way Sidewinder does.  Write up a list of what you
need your firewall to do and compare it to what the Sidewinder and
Netscreen can do.  Talk to a couple of the engineers (not sales people) at
each company and then decide.  You have already found one very happy
Netscreen customer and I am a very happy Sidewinder customer.  I bet if you
look you'll find a dissatisfied customer of both products as well.  I could
probably write a more detailed answer of why I think you should chose the
Sidewinder but I would need to know your network and security
needs/concerns.  If you have any more specific questions about Sidewinder I
am more than willing to answer them.

Jeffery Gieser
