Thanks George,
I had forgot about the ebay page. I just saved it!
Luckily it was still there. I have all of the emails
where the guy stated the second switch would be the
same as the one originally purchased. The ebay page
has a show ver so it is obvious the guy knows a little
about Cisco hardware. None the less, thanks for the
tip on saving the web page!!!
