[Asterisk-Users] Is asterisks the best for a simple DTMF response system?

[Bryce Nesbitt (mailing list account)]

I received a recommendation to check out Asterisk, as a platform to host
a simple DTMF response system, something like:
   Setup up VoIP endpoint on Linux/FreeBSD system
   Answer incoming VoIP phone calls
   User enters 100#, perl script plays back "foo"
   User enters 101#, perl script plays back "fum"
   User enters 102#, perl script looks up something in
      database, converts to text with festival, speaks it.
How would one get started, using Asterisks on this project, and is
Asterisks the best option?  Is it really good enough for a high volume (though 
sub carrier-grade) solution?  I'm willing to use commercial software also.
