Cool setup.
Were both the Intel NICs usable under pfSense? I see one is dedicated to Intel AMT.

Yes, both were detected and usable at first boot. Didn't have to mess with them at all.

I think the Lanner FW-7573 looks like a really nice next-gen platform (8-core Atom C2000) for a pfSense firewall. Problem is finding a place to buy it (in the US). I just sent an email to Netgate about possible availability.
I think we're going with the Supermicro variant for now.

You can buy directly from Lanner if Netgate won't get it for you, but that won't work under 2.1. You'll need to wait for 2.2 or run pfSense inside a virtual machine.
EDIT: Or maybe 2.1.1, the newer Intel drivers are back in and they don't seem crash-happy this time.
2.1.1 should work.

The A1SRi-2758F? I've got one my desk which will be going in at home tonight. I like it. It's going to be an awesome platform once we get USB 3.0 support (so that the internal ports work) and once SuperMicro fixes the fan speed control which isn't working…

Yup, the drivers in 2.1.1 work.
