Hardware
I recently switched out three unmanaged 8 port switches for one honking 24 port unmanaged switch. The 8 port switches all have the cables in back, but the 24 port has it in front. Today I put in another order for some network cables so I can stash the switch on top of my high desk with its plethora of cables sprouting out the front. I was going to drive over to General Nanosystems, but it's cold outside, and newegg.com is so close... Did I mention you can get 'em in colors?
It all started with a fight to print from Someone's computer. I've got three printers, all shared, but two with their own network ports. I bought a cheap switch to stick between the wireless internet receiver and the computer, but it wasn't as seamless as I'd hoped for. Curse you, newegg specials.
