Hey Kevin,

Not stuck on the HP version and just did some searching on the bay to find
this Linksys version for $50.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cisco-Small-Business-SR2016-16-Port-Gigabit-Switch-/290659833184?_trksid=p4340.m1374&_trkparms=algo%3DPI.WATCH%26its%3DC%252BS%26itu%3DUCC%26otn%3D15%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5865217037103381924#ht_658wt_1132

This looks like a better deal for me.
