That is what I am leaning towards but I believe Juniper is trying to
phase out the ScreenOS stuff, though I am more familiar with it than the
JunOS.  I have some experience with ScreenOS and am more at home with
its "quirks".

Judging from recent traffic on the NANOG list, the SSG is more stable
than the SRX and stability is more of my concern than ease of
administration.

Thanks.
