Netgear GS108v2: The Immortal Switch

We have a couple of Netgear ProSafe 8 Port Gigabit Switch model GS108v2 around the office. These things fail so often it's not even funny. Luckily I've discovered something I would guess Netgear would rather I forget. The device comes with a lifetime warranty on the hardware. The really interesting piece here, though, is that if the device was purchased prior to 11/09 an RMA doesn't require a proof of purchase. What's that you say? They're still available on Amazon? That's right - $60 USD will buy a gigabit switch with a warranty that will last until 2037! Though, by 2037 we'll likely be on 1000GbaseT or some such, but still - thanks Netgear!
