Hmm, I'll have to compare it to M0n0wall:

http://m0n0.ch/wall/

I picked up an embeded PC that is fanless and boots off flash - was 
trivial to load M0n0wall on it, and it can be updated with two clicks.  I 
was impressed at the ease of installation.  Configuring the rules has been 
interesting - I was going to put my wireless router on a third interface 
and basically run it open, but couldn't get it to bridge from one port to 
the other.  Then I ran out of time that day and just haven't gotten back 
to it :)  Will be interesting to see how ipcop does rule management.
