Ok, not being a jerk here or anything.. but if *anyone* has links to 
solid and cheap rackmount systems with some sort of LOM and console 
capability such as my netras have I would owe them a beer or 6.

Moving on..

Please don't take this the wrong way but isn't that sort of microsoft 
mentality? Just make the huddled masses upgrade.. it's easier or cheaper 
then throwing programmers at code correction. Again.. I'm just saying.. 
no offense intended.

I do get the point that the asterisk community is not interested in 
making my old 8086 act as a national call center.. but you have to admit 
there is definite value to my theory that some things should take 
priority over others.. ie: dsp vs. call signaling.
