I'm disappointed that some of the pubs don't seem to be very thorough in
their review of the industry.  Recently, PC Magazine Network Edition ran an
article reviewing NT firewall products.  They only checked out 4 products.
The ZD Internet magazine article mentioned in this group checked out 7 or 8
products.  Gee, there must be 20 products.  Is it just the space limitations
in the mags that limits their articles?

Here's my contribution to articles:  Check out NW Fusion article, comparing
only NT-based firewall products.  They review 8 vendors.  Site is
http://www.nwfusion.com.  You'll have to create an account, then check the
Doc Finder.  Look for document 0402.
