I like to use a couple of DPDT toggle switches, and use a large paper clamp on the handles to get them to go together. Utterly reliable, and no software headaches. Not real fast, but real steady...

Cisco is not an option for me, but anything else goes. The features I want/need are Gigabit, vlan support and low power consumption if thats possible, I currently have a 24 port, so I think a 24 port would work well. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with a smaller(semi) managed (vlan) capable switch? So far I've looked at extreme networks, juniper, transistion networks and netgear. Netgear has a nice price, but I don't want to sacrifice stability and reliability, since it won't get alot of attention.
