Just Another UTM Report

Has anyone seen Joel Snyder's report on UTM Firewalls? (Hide Your Eyes) The overall top performers in this test are Juniper, Cisco and Check Point.... give me a break.
Gartner just release this same report last month and had Juniper, Fortinet and CheckPoint as the leaders in the space. [see report] Not to mention, I thought UTM was taboo. Isn't the new trend next-generation firewalls? IPS, AV, Anti-Spam, VPN all in one?

With that being said look at what they compared:

• Astaro ASG 425a
• Check Point UTM-1 2050
• Check Point VPN-1 UTM Gateway
• Cisco ASA 5540
• Crossbeam C25
• Fortinet FortiGate 3600A
• IBM System x3650
• IBM/ISS MX5010
• Juniper ISG-1000 and Juniper SSG-520M
• Nokia IP290
• Secure Computing Sidewinder 2150D
• SonicWALL PRO 5060
• WatchGuard Firebox Peak X8500e

Couldn't we have chopped this list down to the real players in the space? I would have recommended we compare: Juniper, Cisco, Fortinet and CheckPoint at the various levels SMB/SOHO, Midsize, Enterprise, and maybe the +20GB throughput monsters. All the other devices are either to niche or to generic or its a matter of costs.

Now I know someone is going to comment, "this was an enterprise evaluation." Come on, not every box in the enterprise is... what about at the endpoints, at local offices, for site to site VPN, etc... Your ideal situation is one provider, one central interface, that can protect the perimeter and is scalable.

I'm opening the floor to comments. I want everyone to see this report because Joel asks some great questions and the concept was well intentioned. So you be the judge.
