asterisk users - Feb 2005 - does asterisk support menus?

Whenever some call comes in i want it to be automatically picked up and then it
plays some message "Welcome to xyz, Press 1 for sales and 2 for
support" and then it takes it to the particular extension of sales/support.

can i achieve this thing using asterisk?
