    considering the fact that you could build a well equipped asterisk server with dual processors, raid, ups, redundant power supplies, etc. for around $3,000, you could set it up and see how things go. if it doesn't work out, then go with the expensive proprietary stuff and sell your server or use it for something else. ...or take it home for "testing!"
