I think Intel NICs are good, but
for sure it’s a good device with openbsd, only price is sometimes an issue.
I have been using it for more then 8 years now and works great, never had an
hardware failure.
Even the oldest devices are still up and running but are getting to slow..

OpenBSD is listed under Software on the page you linked. As I understand
it the people who developed CARP did it on Soekris hardware, and this demo
was done using soekris 4801's. (but don't quote me on that, my memory is
hazy).

I have an old net4511 running 5.4. It’s too old/slow to route but it’s too fun
to not have running because how many other OS’es can run on a 486 100MHz with

I'm not sure what you mean by too slow to route.
I've a net4501 with 64mb of RAM that's handling all of my IP traffic
at home. Biggest problem is swapping taking out available interrupts.
Modern networks are actually just too fast for the hardware these
days. It works fine for home stuff.

A few years back I put m0n0wall (FreeBSD-based) on it, hooked it up to 2
machines (1 WAN, 1 LAN) and pushed a file through it. Its max bandwidth was
well under my Internet connection speed.
It was replaced with a net5501.
