Robert, We have used the HP Procurve Switches here for several years. No problems at all, very easy to configure and you can separate ports into different VLAN's if needed. They're stackable also and easily managed.

I am looking to upgrade switching for a architectural/engineering firm here. It is a small network with 85 devices on it. I want to go gigabit and the owner probably wont spend the $$$ to get Cisco gear. I was looking at 3com and HP. Here are the models I was looking at for each vendor: 3Com Switch 4200G 48-Port 3CR17662-91 Hp ProCurve 2810-48G 48 Port It is a flat network so I only need a layer 2 device. It is a cad heavy shop and I was wondering which one you would lean toward or if there was another model you like better by same or different vendor in the $2500-$3000 range.
