I'm not going to buy a COS switch. A 2901 will set you back $1400 or so and it still won't have ATM, FDDI, or an RSM. It makes a lot more sense to get access to a switch at work or rent some rack time; I decided to take the switch class. If you just want to experiment with ISL routing, trunking, VLANS, and that kind of thing then you could buy a much cheaper switch. A 2912XL will do that and they are about $400 on E-bay.
