Pragma: That's true, but it does take the load of processing traffic from Windows. My FreeBSD machine took a beating trying to analyze traffic due to MyDoom, Nimda, etc to the point I couldn't use it (It is a P2-233 with 32 MB RAM but thats beside everything).
Yes, there exploits out there for hardware routers, but I haven't seen nearly as many exploits for them as I do Windows.
