> A reseller I bumped into last night was offering managed Cisco "micro" 8
port 10/100hubs for $49 - seemed like a decent deal, but I'm not quite sure
what the difference is?
>
> Could someone please explain? How would these be better than, say, a
Linksys 10/100 switch at a similar price-point (5 port switch $45 +/-)?
