Disadvantages of the appliance:
1.  Non-portable license for FW-1.  I haven't verified this recently, but
in past the FW-1 license was tied to the particular Nokia appliance, so an
upgrade to a newer Nokia appliance required purchasing a new FW-1 license.
You don't have this problem on generic Intel platforms.
