I can't say I like what they've done with the Procurve site.  It used to 
be easy to figure out.  Now its much harder.  We tend to look at things 
by function and specs, and they are organized by product number/class (ugh).

(and if anyone from HP is reading this, and has a magic incantation, or 
URL to recommend ... please ... PLEASE ... forward it my way ... We will 
provide burnt offerings and other things to show our gratitude!)
