ISA Server 2000 Appliance Survey:
Win a FREE Copy of ISA Server and Beyond

Should there be an ISA Server 2000 based firewall appliance? This subject comes up from time to time on the ISAServer.org Web boards and mailing list and I think its an excellent idea! Many people won't use ISA Server as a firewall because it doesn't look like a firewall. What if someone could come out with a ISA Server 2000 firewall appliance on a super hardened version of Windows Server 2003? I think it would be a great idea, but I need your help. Microsoft takes the ISAServer.org community's opinion seriously. Microsoft will listen to us if we can enough ISAServer.org visitors to share their opinions on an ISA 2000 firewall appliance.
If you complete the survey below and email it to tshinder@isaserver.org, I put you in a drawing for a FREE copy of ISA Server and Beyond. I'll even autograph it if you want me to
. Just copy and paste the survey questions into the email message and sent it to tshinder@isaserver.org.
Thanks!
