Hi,

You only need a machine for asterisk, it can even be a pentium I.  Then u
can download softphones(there a millions available), and install these on
two other machines.  You can then have a conversation between the
softphones,, and the asterisk machine will do the call setup in the
middle.

You setup asterisk on one machine.  U do this by downloading asterisk
1.2.6 and zaptel.  For zaptel do: make linux26 && make install.  For
asterisk do: make && make install && make samples.  (Read the install
docs) go to voip-info.org.  if the softphones you download a sip, then
configure two sip devices in sip.conf, then put correct extensions to dial
in extensions.conf.  (Read the sample .conf's)

thanks,
yusuf
