Crap, I already ordered the X100P.

David,

I would suggest you consider a TDM400 Card with 1 FXO and 1 FXS module.
This will handle all of your requirements with a single card, and allow you
to add two more ports later.

FXO_FXS_Interface_Card.html

It actually works out to a little less money as well.

Yes, this is plenty more than you need -- if you have the X100P, you won't
need to worry about an alternate timing source.  My system is running on a
1300MHz (?) Duron with 256MB Ram and a 10GB drive, and it handles one POTS,
a handful of VOIP trunks and a dozen extensions fine.
