    That's a great idea, never thought of it just unplugged :) Maybe I will look into that. Been eye balling the 2960X, 3560/3750G and the 4948's... But new fans would be the cheapest... But the 2960X have some really cool features like hibernation and suppose to be really quiet. Since I am running...

    Yeah 12T not 12G typo on my end... I got it at a good price plus it has the EMI IOS loaded but its way to loud to sit in the same room with it on. Looking into a Cisco 4948-10GE or 3560E but haven't found any good deals yet.

    Cisco C3560E/C3750E Uplink Ports

    Thats a nice setup. Once i get some more room I will be upgrading to a Skeletek rack but for now my little 12U will do. For monitoring I have heard good things about Zenoss Core. I used it back 2 years ago before I had cisco routers and just used it for server monitoring but heard it works great...

    Hey moose517. A 1760 for Voice is a great idea. becuase you can put voice modules in it like i have (FXO & FXS) for using your home analog telecom line. just make sure when you buy your 1760 it has a PVDM Module so you can support the voice cards. and at least 48B Flash to hold your 12.4 IOS and...

    HDMI cable quality

    The price you spend on a HDMI cable doesn't make it better. A HDMI cable has to meet a specific HDMI Specification. so a $5 cable vs $100 cable still BOTH have to meet the same requirements and standards. But like everyone else is saying MonoPrice. i buy all my cables from them...
