Re: [Astlinux-users] Anyone used one of these?

Mark,

Don't you think 166MHz might be a little on the slow end?

The net4801-50 is $230 (quantity 20, board, case, power supply) for a  
proven, time tested, faster solution.  By the time you add a PoE  
switch and IP phones, the CPU box savings is in the noise.

It is real cool a home builder is considering this; a AstLinux box,  
Netgear FS116P PoE switch, a few SPA-942 phones.  Great system for a  
$1000-$1500 extra.  Much nicer than the Panasonic solutions of the  
recent past.
