        Vm's are generally OK (if you pick a well suited hypervisor)

        USB NICs are almost always crappy with buggy drivers.

          using an vmware esxi 4.1 box.

          server is to old to run a more recent version.

          i would still have thought a dedicated firewall box was better then a vm

            VM is much easier to manage.  If you're a keener, match a VM with a physical unit in a HA arrangement.
