I don't know what the big deal is.  I've rolled at least 20 of these
switches into my network, and not only are they more stable than the
Centillion switches that they replaced, they only cost half as much.
Most of the money I dropped was on converting my stations from token
ring to ethernet.

Same here.
He harvests email addresses from peeringdb. (I have slight typo's in
my peeringdb record to recognize harvested spams.)
