What, Matt?  You haven't already talked about this here?  :-)

My new job is Matt Florell's old job, where VICIdial got started. 

I haven't counted the boxes lately, but I think there are 14 with quad-T
cards in them, separate boxes for MySQL and Apache.

Our architecture is FXS T-1 channel banks for the agent phones, usually
1 + 3 IXC spans per box, though we turned up a box a couple weeks ago
with 3 channel banks, and no spans.

All TDM; the only VoIP is the IAX trunks hauling load-balance calls
around.

And just the usual VICIdial tools, mostly, though I'm fixin to deploy
either Big Sister or Nagios.
