<DIV></DIV>I have two in production right now. Had a few issues out of the
box, but that was more related to learning the GUI than the switch itself, I
think. I am still not comfortable with the lack of flexibility that a GUI only
switch affords, but for those that are concerned about price this is better
than some alternatives. <BR><BR>Israel<BR><BR>

500 in production yet. We currently use 3560's and will continue to
use 3560's but we also make suggestions to our School districts as to what
to buy. Cisco has always been more expensive but with the 500's this
has changed. We have previously suggested the HP procurves but the
price is almost the same. And more of my Schools are looking at VoIP
so we would like them to start thinking in this direction, but since we have
not been able to get a demo yet, and you guys always have great information,
I would like to hear from you. I don't like not having the CLI but
other then that and the backplane (which shouldn't matter for k12 schools)
do they work well or are they buggy?</SPAN></FONT></P>
