Security by obscurity
OpenBSD + SGI hardware for firewall is kick ass combination
but SUN hardware is also a good choice as Risk architecture are less prone to buffer overflows(not that any is know for OpenBSD but still).
I would try to avoid i386 hardware for firewall just because every idiot now is playing with it hardware.
On the another hand if you want to save money on your electric bill fanless MiniITX mother boards are great way to go. They run i386 however.
