You sound like a good candidate for [EMAIL PROTECTED] Check out the website http://asteriskathome.sourceforge.net/, and take a look at the Handbook. I think that will answer most of your questions.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a great way to get started - It will make it very simple to get a running system going that you can start playing with. If you outgrow it, you'll still have learned a lot about how Asterisk works.
