I have an older Compaq machine with 15k SCSI drives in a raid, dual power 
supplies, and 3 Xeon 550 MHz processors.  It seems to be quite happy running 
Asterisk for several businesses, as well as web and e-mail for several 
businesses.  My big issue is the zaptel support, and I'm wondering whether or 
not I would be better of with a single processor machine that has a faster 
clock speed (and uses less electricity).
