I've been trying to get a test G5 in our office from Terrasoft for the last few months. They are very interested and we have offered to give them a deposit for the machine while we test it for a week, but they don't seem to have a machine that they want to send us. Anyone else know of another Asterisk-eager vendor that might lend us a machine for a week for us to test so we can post our results?
an Xserve wouldn't be the best option because it can only hold one TE405P card, we would prefer to test on a Dual G5 tower. Then again beggers can't be choosers and we'd just like any high end G5 mac made in the last 6 months to test on.

It seems that the Mac is better designed to handle the IO requirements demanded of an audio centric application like Asterisk. I don't know the answer. I haven't seriously touched a Mac in 20 years. I will probably be taking the plunge though.
