That looks like a really good deal. Too bad only comes with one NIC. No point in having a 1gbit network without all the proper hardware. Thanks for the info tho.

Actually, this is quite a useful setup. If you have 8 machines running at 100Mb/s they can all get full access to the one server running Gigabit. Of course, if you're buying a switch this small, chances are your server really can't handle much more than 100Mb/s, but it's cool to say "I've got a gigabit network!"

Wow, that would definitely be cool to set up... but for a home user, i really have no use for that other than to brag.
