Hi all,

1, There is No Software without bug.
2, Try to find out what kind of features would you like to use and ask
the TAC for version that has the specified features in stable state.
3, ASA can route back traffic on the same interface. (But, my point of
view: a firewall should not be a router, they are different services
that are migrated because of the bloody marketing who create
multifunctional devices without the knowledge of networking! At the end
there will be the big f*uckin' BOX, that will do everything, like email
server, firewall, router, web server, application server, cache engine,
vpn terminator, load balancer, ... EVERYTHING!)
4, The config and the OS management is very fast and easy at ASA and
PIX.
5, The GUI is sick at ASA and the people also who expect GUI for a Cisco
product. I do not understand why GUI is so important?...
6, I was drunken and I am reeeeaally sick now :-)))

Just another option:

I am very aware of this command in version 7.2(x).  Sadly, it was not
available for me
  because some of the my customers are still on 7.1(2) or lower and
version 7.2(x), according
  to Cisco, is still buggy.

Do you mean "*same-security-traffic permit intra-interface" *?
