The 3com acquisition and subsequent partnership with Cisco gave HP tremendous
access to Cisco technology.  The 3com gear wasn't great but the procurve line
is definitely mature from a hardware perspective.

I've had very good luck with HP's Procurve switching gear, both in terms 
of reliability and performance.  Not so much luck with HP's
