Hello folks,

A (hopefully) quick question...

What are the primary differences between the 3508G and the 3550-12G? 
We're going to be using one or the other as a sort of layer 2 distribution 
switch for shared colocation.  I've been told that it's not so much a 
difference of processing and packet switching performace, but more one of 
features.  Does anyone have any insight?  I just don't want to tell the 
purchasers to buy the less expensive switch if it might not cut the 
mustard.  I don't really require any more "features" than etherchannel and 
VLANs....

Thanks,

Rick
