I've been using a Compaq Deskpro EN SFF. They're small, have 3 pci slots, and you can get them up to 1Ghz PIII w/ 512MB of ram on ebay for under $100. Great for testing. When you're done with it throw in a PCI->PCMCIA adapter and turn it into a wireless AP or throw in a network card. They make a great router. You can't beat the price. Corporations bought them by the hundreds and they're all coming off of corporate lease. A TDM400 fits just right.
If you want an even smaller package the Compaq Deskpro EN ultra SFF has 2 full size pci slots. --Zach On Fri, 2006-06-09 at 09:34 +0200, Jens Vagelpohl wrote: > On 9 Jun 2006, at 02:04, Leo Ann Boon wrote: > > > Jens Vagelpohl wrote: > > > >> Hi everyone, > >> > >> I'm trying to buy a small form-factor PC system for use with > >> Asterisk and Hylafax in conjunction with a Eicon DIVA Server > >> single-port ISDN card (needs full-size 5V PCI 2.2 slot, but PCI-X > >> compatible).
