[asterisk-users] Asterisk Appliance, will Asterisk Business Edition be mandatory?

[shadowym]

Just wondering about the Asterisk Appliance.  I was waiting for hardware
like this but the details are still kind of sketchy about how it will be
sold.  Will there be an option to buy it barebones without Asterisk Business
Edition?  

Not even sure if it's feasable for a mere mortal such as myself to compile
Linux/Asterisk on that Blackfin RISC processor it uses.
