That you can put one together yourself, cheaper, for less money, is true.......but that doesn't help the small business that just wants to 'protect their little network' and still have access to the web, email etc......they could do the same as you....by hiring a consultant to set it up and it would probably cost more!

I think the REBEL box is quite a nice little package...and it'll fit anywhere, drawing less power than a regular light bulb! It's also been getting good reviews that talk of it in the same breath as the Cobalt box.....don't write it off yet!!
