A few of us (Larry Weeks, Kurt Sussman and myself) are messing around with 
Asterisk.  I've have a number of places using it.  I just completed a 
project to replace a voice only T1 that was connecting two offices with two 
Asterisk boxes using VOIP to connect the legacy PBX's together.  This will 
save them $200/month.

Rip off!  I have a client that pays $650 for a full T1.

The above client has had a T1 for internet for 7 years and the circuit has 
*NEVER* gone down.  Their have been a few times that the ISP had momentary 
network problems preventing access outside of their network but other then 
thats it.   I can't count on my fingers how many times my cable modem has 
gone down!

No new progress on the motor swap.  New Years party kicked my butt!
