That looks like an acceptable alternative. I personally don't have a lot of
faith in Linksys; I've had all sorts of Linksys stuff just mysteriously go
belly up, but this is a Cisco/Linksys small business switch, and I'd hope
they have better QC than the consumer-level stuff.

Also, since there's no "buy it now" on that switch, I suspect you'll end up
paying far more than $50 if you can even win the auction.
