I have a Rosewill 8 port gigbit switch I purchased from newegg. I think
it was the cheapest one (on NewEgg) I found that had 8 ports. I did have
to RMA the first one I got, so add a couple bucks more for return
shipping. I think the total was $45 or so. I do not use jumbo frames on
my LAN, but it has been solid so far (~6 months).
