Based on my research OpenVPN looks easier to configure. We use only Linux servers and need employees with Windows 2000/XP laptops to be able to connect as Road Warriors from any location in the USA. Our internal network lies inside a Cisco PIX 515 firewall. We have a T1 coming into our gateway. Any advice would be greatly appreaciated. Thank you.

I've never used OpenVPN however it looks like a very interesting and
capable product.  We are planning to eventually build support for it in
the ISCS network security management project
(http://iscs.sourceforge.net).  On the other hand, IPSec and Openswan
will give you much better interoperability with other systems as far as
I know - John
