Probaby pre-eBay too! My rack, more or less mirroring the Internetwork
Expert one (minus a 3560, and replacing 3640s by 2600XMs), cost me around
3500 b,. The switches were the bulk of the investment; without selling the
routers I'll keep for now, my lab only ended up costing me around 1000 b,.
For such a "low" price, I feel practicing on real hardware was worth it.
