And no switch has ever cost $10 - excluding thrown-out second-hand devices that would not be used in a serious network. But in corporate networks, there is a lot more involved than just the cost of the hardware. The cost of changing things is often more relevant than the hardware itself - the downtime, the mounting, the paperwork, and so on. > When was the last time you could even find a hub for > sale in a store? 2005? > I can't remember - but I think it was a long time before that when we last bought one. However, it's perhaps 5 years since I last removed an old hub from one of our networks.
