      Not usually someone who posts "praise" but I have to say this -

      The vendor was great and shipped fast, everything arrived in great shape the board fit into the case like a glove (I had to take off the little screws next to serial port though and re-attach them) and PFSense runs great on the board.

      Did I mention the case is REALLY nice!

      I bought this kit: http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?cPath=60&products_id=492

      and I have to say that although the whole thing is close to $200 I really feel I got value - if you want to build a home or small business firewall this is the kit to get!

      I am in no way affiliated with them just really happy with purchase.

        Forgot to mention I did have to update the BIOS to the latest and I am running RC4 no problems…

          I've been wanting to go that route, but $250 for the rack mount case and one slide rail kit is ridiculous. The other cases are less than $20. Then you still need to purchase the board. If it was half that much I would already have one. Actually I would've bought two boards and used the second for testing.

            Did you update pfSense to 12RC4 by yourself? Are you using embedded on a CF or a Full on Microdrive?
