I got the ALIX.6E2 from netgate.com (their part: m1n1; http://store.netgate.com/Netgate-m1n1wall-6E2-black-P1051.aspx) and it started up without issue right out of the box. I'll be configuring it over the next few days with a hope to do an install early next week. The owner is quite happy with the potential and, I think, I can configure it to (with some elbowing here ad there) to run samba for storing their music for the store.
