    Every  firewall appliance product I have seen uses PC hardware
    (usually P5 200).

    There was a posting in relcom.comp.security some days ago: one man
    told he opened the PIX box and guess what was inside? Yep, you are
    right. The generic chinese PC motherboard with Pentium CPU.
    Not just some Pentium-based piece of hardware, but _PC_ motherboard.
    IDE controller and some other things were removed but..
