multiple gateways in windows server?

I'm looking to aggregate multiple aDSL circuits. I'm looking at Cisco,
Watchguard, and a couple other brands. Is it possible with Windows
server, to have multiple NIC's teamed in a load balancing
configuration, acting as a router for an internal network?

I know that I can do it with some advanced routing commands in Linux,
but I was wondering if Windows Server gave me any options.

Thanks

Possible, yes.

Best? Thats opinion.

Nic teaming is a hardware thing,..not a Windows thing.

Can anybody tell me a good way to load balance 4+ aDSL circuits. I've
looked at Cisco routers with multiple aDSL WICs, a product from the UK
called a FireBrick, one from a company called Radware, and something
from WatchGuard. Price really isn't a problem as we are trying to get
rid of 6 overpriced T-1's and replace them with VERY cheap 6Mbit aDSL
lines.

Thank you, and yes I've googled and googled and googled already.

I don't know of anything with more than 2 WAN ports. Even then they were "home
user" boxes and I don't even know what brand and model they were.
The ADSL will never equal the T1s because of the slow upload speed. You need
SDSL if you are to make things equal.
