Agreed, we use both the Catalyst 3560 and 3750, both work very well for either application that you mentioned.
We use a variety of models from 12, 24, and 48 port Gb. We also have had great success with L3 and PoE on them.

We're currently happiest with Cisco's 3560G series, so you might take a look at them and see if they're what you're looking for. HPs have always seemed a bit difficult to manage, by comparison, though sometimes a little cheaper.-Bill
