[svlug] full duplex hub (or switch)?

  I have few computers so I decided to get a switch or hub (well, what I
have is hub with switch). I have just found out that the one I've got
has only one full duplex port and 4 half duplex ports. I would like to
have all the ports supporting full duplex - I went through all the
hubs/switches/routers in compusa (the one near tanforan, san bruno) but
haven't found any that would say it supports full duplex (apart from the
huge (for me) ones with 24 ports), I saw one on a photo though that had
leds with labels FDX (I guess that means full duplex) - it's FS 105,
they didn't have single unit, just pack with two NICs (=more expensive)

  my question is - are there any small FULL DUPLEX on ALL ports
hubs/switches (I guess I want switch, or hub with switch) with about 5
ports (I need three right now)? any to avoid? any favourites?

  TIA
