Actually, this is the thing I find most usefull.  There are not very many
posts where the statement is about a fully functional asterisk system
being deployed in a business.  The vast majority of posts are about
problems with asterisk, and in my case it has kept me from replacing
our functional but aging PBX with asterisk.

More success stories with details about the hardware and the environment
would be of great benefit to this list, in my opinion.
