I just ordered my first parts to build one myself. It's basically the same thing you'll build on your own, plus you get choice of colors, wireless cards and things like that. It's cool.

I just followed these instructions after I bought an ALIX board from ebay. Installed pfSense 1.2.3, and shortly after that I upgraded pfSense to version 2.0. BTW, my ALIX board BIOS was already at the recommended version 0.99h, but I had to check any way. Thanks for this very useful post.

I was about to order from netgate when I came across a prebuild pfsense/alix unit at nw-ds.com for only $140. https://nw-ds.com/shop/firewalls/lx700.html Do you think it is legit? Seems very cheap. Great post, thank you.

I've heard about Alix systems for pfsense, but the photos really helped. I had no idea they were so small. I'd like to do this as well, but the price tag is a lot more than FREE which is what my old Pentium II 233 is. I've been wondering how much electricity it draws, but I suspect it'll take a while to consume $250-worth. I'm tempted to switch from old hdd to CF card, but I'm not sure if it'll be worth the trouble. Informative post. I’ve heard about Alix systems for pfsense, but the photos really helped.
