I just bought a Rosewill Gigabit card for $10. Works great. I also bought a cheap 8-port Gig switch, stress boots, RJ-45 terminators, and a pair of crimpers. Someone had given me most of a box of Cat5e. So, for something like $80 I ran Gigabit Ethernet in my crawlspace and now have a fat wired LAN in addition to wireless. It makes backups and streaming HD movies fly.
Ain't nothing wrong with my DLink DGS 2208 Gigabit switch although I paid considerably less than $200 for mine at Micro Center back when they were still in production (like under 50 bucks). (DLink now sells the DGS-1008G in its stead.)
I don't know there's such a thing as a bad gigabit switch unless you get one of those super el cheapo no name Chinese jobbies.
