Jeff,

They're relatively fully featured, run relatively recent IOS, and are dirt cheap. (3550-24FX's run ~350UKP). The fibre ones were also kept "on the books" for quite a while, until the 3750-24FS launched (but they cost a fortune).

In my experience, they don't suffer from the early 3750 reliability issues either. (I have some early (2004/2005 ish) C3750G-12S's that have mainboard capacitor explosions). Later C3750-12S's (starting sometime before Feb 2006, and marked -V4 on the label) have a different mainboard, with a differently designed power stage. )
