To be honest, I prefer a switch rather than a switch right now.
Pretty sure this is gonna be a better investment in future and cannot be bricked by nintendo when they feel like it.
I would have loved that gift as a teenager - I only had a 4port hub, which limited the people I could invite to a LAN party

Poor kid got a hand me down cisco IOS garbage fresh off the legacy rack decommissioning full of old ass Sun SPARC servers.
At least get him something new.
Capitalisation is lost in spoken word. Blame capitalism?

“Dad’s laughing, but I’m about to host the most epic LAN party of my life”
At least your dad is not black.
This comment confused me until I remembered that Community scene.
Yep , that’s what I meant :)
Wtf.

Edit: it works now, but what the actual copulation is that
Dear old Dad is in IT, and he explains that this is a lot more expensive than a nintendo switch.
Only the “license”, hardware is cheap
“I said I wanted Switch 2!”
“Switch 2? What’s wrong with the first one I gave you?”
At least it’s a proper Cisco one and not those shitty Linksys/SG ones.
Unfortunately it’s a Cisco one, so there’s probably recurring support costs tied to it.
Got to teach them about support contracts now otherwise Pal Alto will gouge them with their credits system.
Shitty Linksys, a Cisco brand you mean?
Also, Cisco’s list of absolute bonkers vulnerabilities is not a good sign tbh.They sold Linksys to Belkin ages ago and rebranded the stuff they kept as SG.
TBF even though they have a significant number of vulns, they are at least open about handling them unlike other vendors.
So you’re going to fix the vulnerabilities, right?

…right?
