My second choice would always be HP for many reasons. I have three of the 2848's.

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. Thanks!
