Hp procurve 2650 right for me?

[boostified]

I currently have 24 computers running of 24 port switch. I will be adding another 24 so i plan to upgrade to a 48.Im looking at the hp procurve 2650. Is this a good addition to the system or would something else suit me better. I need it to be managed as i wont be at the location all the time and need to be able to access it to fix problems.

I can say HP makes very nice switches esp. on a budget and if you need it managed. In the past had a few opportunities to work with them and I thought they were really nice. Have you tried to google some reviews on it?

haven't really had time to do much research on the switch. I have heard good things about them as far as reliability goes which is really important to me. Ive been trying to find a good place to buy it from for a decent price but cant seem to find somewhere. the egg has it for $784 which is a little out of my budget. Is there another switch that compares to the 2650 for a bit cheaper?
