[nog] Software routers

[Dragomir Zhelev]

Because ipfw have all what I need :) If I want pf then I'll use OpenBSD, 
but as already told you my favorite choise is Linux. All deppend from 
project and specific case.

In other project my be I'll use *BSD with pf or ipfw or ipf.

For instance I use routeros for soho solutions.
