24 Port Gigabit Switch

I'm looking for a new switch for our office. Must have 24 ports and be able to deal with gigabit connection.
We currently have Linksys 2024, which is getting repaired, so we're looking for a replacement.
Can anyone recommend me one?
Thanks

Do all the ports have to be Gigabit? We have two Netgear Prosafe switches, each have 24 10/100Mbps ports and two additional Gigabit ports... I use the gigabit ports to connect the switches and for direct connections to our server and router. This solution was much cheaper than total gigabit connectivity, and isn't a problem as its just a normal office environment, we're not shifting huge files around

It has to be gigabit.
We've spent alot of money getting our whole place networked with Cat6 for gigabit connection. We transfer alot of large files around the office, so we need a pretty decent data transfer rate.
We have a Linksys SR2024C which is being refurbished (has taken almost 6 weeks and counting..). I'd rather not buy another one, especially If the new one goes t*ts up. I'm not waiting another 6 weeks!!
Are they are any decent D-Link, Netgear ones out there? Around the £200 mark?
Thanks
