Now.. would you like to argue the fact that more packages == more security holes? Think of it this way: PBXware and Astlinux can coexist in about 45 megabytes of storage, running out of a Compact Flash and can be loaded in less than 5 minutes by just about anyone. It is a purpose designed system that is intentionally tight on footprint but doesn't sacrafice features. It's rock solid, well tested and you get support from commercial entities.

Yup, and it requires that you are, or someone you hire is, an Asterisk stud. It's a kick-ass solution, but it isn't necessarily right for everyone.

Look.. I'm all in support of what the Asterisk At Home project is doing, and I encourage it. I just have a problem with people reccomending it to
commercial users. Asterisk At Home is not something that I would even
dream of deploying in a commercial environment (yet.. that may change as
it matures). Just because you CAN do something it doesn't make it the
right decision.

With encouragement like this, who needs detractors? ;-)

Seriously, it sounds like AstLinux, etc works really well for you and is a perfect solution for your needs. However, keep in mind that everyone else's needs aren't the same as yours. AMP/[EMAIL PROTECTED] are far from perfect, but they work very, very well and they meet the needs of many small businesses.
