Are you thinking of a single server to handle all of the above workload or 
are you thinking of 3 separate servers.

Is transcoding an issue?

Are the security needs the same between the SIP server (only access from 
known SIP peers), the TDM server (only ssh from you), and the web server 
(access from all)?

Depending on the answers to the questions above, 1 or a couple of low 
powered Atom based systems may be up to the task. My only experience with 
"Atoms" is as a HTPC where the ION does most of the work and as a desktop 
where running several bzip2's (compressing ISOs on an SSD) in the 
background doesn't interfere with foreground interactivity.

I could run a "sipp" command from an adjacent host to load up my desktop 
box if you can specify the command line...
