Default 3com - Great!
About 6 years ago, I purchased a top of the range switch (4400 48 port) for work. These babies still retail for about £700.

Last night it died!.

True to their word, 3com have accepted an RMA warranty replacement claim as it's covered by their "lifetime" warranty policy.

Result!

By lifetime, they mean "if it is something we still sell".

Chuffed.
