I've got a 3560CG-8PC-S on my desk. Runs like a trooper, been very pleased with it. Its quiet, it fits into an office environment, its solidly built. 

Our main fleet of switches are 3560-48PS, so I'm a little concerned that it may not behave exactly the same when testing some of the more esoteric dot1x features, due to the C running EX train, while the larger units run SE. This is just a niggle though, I haven't found any actual issues.
