Walt, <<At this price, this product may be in competition with his G2 products.>> The last price I saw for the G2 hub was $4995 for a 10-port unit. That's $500 per port. I think G2 makes one of the least expensive hubs, so the average hub price should be higher than that. I don't think Ancor has to be priced the same as a managed hub, but they have to be in the ballpark. Given the choice, I think most customers will choose a switch over a hub if the prices are comparable, and performance and scalability are issues at all. Craig
