Is that the same guy that just decided that what constitues a firewall
has is different depending one what version of Cisco IOS someones PIX is
running?

Forget the Linksys for a moment and just consider what Jeff eloquently
wrote a while ago. A firewall does not need to meet one persons spec to
be the thing known universally as a firewall. To meet a certain
functional spec for a particular deployment, sure but not everyones
needs are the same.
