Actually, one can build a very good firewall with only one physical NIC.

Well OK I admit you also need a manageable switch, which is very likely
going to cost you much more than a regular switch plus an additional
NIC, but if you happen to have only one NIC and no way to add an other
one in your FW machine, or if you want to have multiple DMZs, 802.1Q
VLANs might be an interesting concept.
