If it was my money and a small office, I'd go NetGear in a heartbeat.
What's your budget? For a small installation, NetGear is fine and we use them in short-term installations or where we end up with more devices than we have cable for in some locations. I really like the ProCurve products but they're obviously more pricey and probably overkill for what you want.

Subject: [PCTECH] Switches
Has anybody seen any significant differences in the many
Ethernet switches ?
I have gotten in the shopping mode for a client and I can't
believe how many folks are building these things, yet they
all appear to be identical in form and function.
(Over 35 suppliers from my distributor)
I am looking for a simple 12 and 6 port switch(s) and have found
them from $10 to $300, with a few going waaay up in price.
I am talking about a 10/100/1000 wired switch for a very basic
network of 1- 15 devices.
I don't really need the gigabyte version but I thought, why not since
we are doing a whole new deal.
Is the Netgear stuff really any different than the HP Procurve stuff ?
I tend to avoid the really off the wall brands from China but who knows ?
