3660 for lab?

in CCNA & CCENT
Hi
Im currently building my lab for CCNA, so far I've got:
2620
2650XM
2x3640
2950-24T
2950-24G
I can get hold of a 3660 for £45/$75. What do people think of the 3660?
I was also thinking of getting a 2651XM or 2621XM aswell and another switch, but I think I may be getting carried away with myself, watching ebay for cheap cisco kit can be quite addictive!
I do plan on going the CCNP route afterwards so Im trying to buy stuff that will carry over.
Thanks
Huw

I have a 3662, it is a beast and will fill in as a frame switch for lab purposes with the right module. I gave $50 for mine though.

don't bother with it mate, find yourself a 26x1XM for the same price and save on electricity billPower consumption on that thing is at leaset x2 of 2600 series.
