Juniper gateway choices

[Cal Frye <cjf () CALFRYE COM>]

Hi, all,
A quick question: I see Juniper has a couple choices for a branch-office
gateway sort of device. The SRX series employs JunOS, while the SSG line
speaks ScreenOS. Many of the specs appear similar, and some of the
hardware appears identical, at least in the glossies.

Any experiences or advice that might help me lean in one direction
rather than the other? I don't have any Juniper experience for
grounding. I'm talking about the lower-end units, like the SSG140 or SRX210.

Thanks in advance!
