The GSM7* series from Netgear is a good bet by all accounts. There are managed Linksys switches available a decent prices, but you'd be wanting to grab them before the label changes to Cisco, and the price jumps by an order of magnitude :)

And for a core switch even a die-hard like me would not suggest a Linux box. Right tool for the right job, thanks very much.*

If you're a SAGE-AU member, I'd suggest asking there.

* Mind you, pretty much all of the Cisco gear is Linux under the hood these days...
