We used these for years, and they were great, and super cheap on EBay.  
HP support was fantastic as well. The 26xx series allows for "light"  
layer 3 routing; you may want to snag the 2626 or 2650 instead of the  
25xx series. I believe that HP has end-of-lifed these switches,  
though, so firmware updates for security bugs, etc, will, from what I  
understand, cease in a few years.

We upgraded to some Dell PowerConnect 6248s in the past year, so that  
we could use VRRP for (routing-enabled) switch failover. As with all  
Dell things, hammer them on the price and you can get it ~30% cheaper  
than listed.
