asterisk users - Apr 2008 - What kind of Specs for Conference server

Hi List,
I know that this question has been asked before so please forgive me. I have a
client that wants a box with 24 extensions that will have on it 6 conference
rooms. All the phones will be using uLaw.

Thanks.

Dovid

Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission?

I don't think you can buy a PC so slow it couldn't handle 24
simultaneous
calls -- you may be able to find something in your junk pile that wouldn't 
handle it.

Seriously, I tested a $300 Zonbu box (1.2gHz VIA processor, 512mb ram) 
with 180 calls. (I forget if it was SIP or IAX -- you could search the 
mailing list archives...) The calls were only playing demo-congrats in a 
loop, but the audio quality was fine.

Thanks in advance,

And how many total users on the system, including outside conferencing 
parties?
