[asterisk-users] OT: Asterisk on fitPC

I love the thin client stuff. It probably looks as big as the Samsung
SWA-4000. But in terms of hardware, don't I need a PCI card to get it
working? How would that work?

Sorry, I have no idea about Asterisk working for home, but just SIP related
stuff. :(

Looks like it's rs232, so I suspect not :)

However if the AMD Geode 500MHz processor is any good, and I'd expect it to
be better than the old 500MHz Via processor I use as my test/development
system then you'll be able to run well over a dozen concurrent calls (not
transoding) without any issues..


Hm. $300 in the US and the UK disty is selling them for just short of £240,
so they can go stuff themselves, low-power or not. (I buy 1GHz systems with
1GB of RAM, running at 15W for half that. No drive though)
