I'm a die-hard switch/case guy, but I agree with Steven on this. Neither is inherently easier or harder to read. Of course, I personally prefer switch statements, but I think it's a matter of style. Steven's example is every bit as readable as a switch statement. Also, with switch statements, you have to be careful about nesting switch statements. I've seen switch statements with nested switches that are 3-4 pages long. There has to be a better way to write code than that.
