[Leaplist] Opinions on gigabit switches

[Kyle Gonzales]

Tony,

I do not have direct experience.  However, in a former life I worked in
IT, and some fellow admins used Dell switches in test environments
without any issues.  They were not used in our networking group, as we
were standardized on Cisco.  This was not a reflection of their quality,
however.
