I concur.

As an aside, or possibly support for the fact that caps go bad. I picked up a 24 port 10/100 D-Link (or was it Linksys?) switch at Goodwill a few months ago. I was suspicious that it might have ended up there for a reliability problem. I opened it up, and sure enough, a bunch of bulging leaking caps. Unfortunately, in values I don't keep on hand.
