From experience, the learning curve of a pix firewall is very steep. I have used Pix 515 and it takes a while to get into it. What about www.smoothwall.org ? Free if you want or you can buy it for $200 and get support. Or www.gta.com it the Gnat box. GUI based and really easy to use. You could get up and running in 30 mins.....

Zippy,

Just depends how much experience you have hacking out at the command line, if you have the CCNA experience, you should have no probs.

The PIX OS is very like the Cisco IOS and you should be fine.
