Agreed. You would be better to grab a used $200 machine and install  
linux & Asterisk on it. Unless you are scaling up to at least 10+  
simultaneous calls, I would imagine that something you have lying  
around would handle it.

If you insist on VMWare, I would imagine that you could configure a  
Sipura SPA-3000 to provide incoming (FXO) and analog extension (FXS)  
ports
