Sort of.  I don't like the way MS ran things.  They didn't play fair so 
I'm not going to add to their coffers and I'm going to discourage anyone 
else from doing so.  I've been a bit supporter of Opensource software 
since the term came into common usage, or even before.

I have to disagree about Asterisk.  Freeswitch is a better but lesser 
known alternative.  It is GPL and opensource.  Some of the Asterisk 
developers started it.

I might give that a try.  Or just fire up one of the Pis I have laying 
around.  My only problem is that Ubuntu on the Pi is a real dog.  At 
least running the standard benchmarks show it to be so. I'm not sure I 
understand why, though.  Rasbian and Ubuntu use the same compiler and 
libraries.

Thanks,
Jim.
