Is the hassle in running it or setting it up?

This gets back to my interest in a CD to boot and install a "basic" system on a hard 
drive.

Something like a 2 line 4 station version and then a single T1, 4 station, 2 line.

This is why there is a users list and a developers list.
As a user, I just want a CD with typical config ready to go.
As a developer, I want to play with and tweak everything, including the OS.

Others are asking for a GUI or web interface.  There's a place for all of this.

Look at what's involved in getting started:
You either have to download 600+MB Linux, install, compile, etc. Or run out and buy a 
Linux version and install, compile, etc.  Now for most of us this is not a big 
problem.  But, just look at the time envolved in setting up a couple of 266mz boxes to 
play and test with.

Put an ISO on the site and watch hardware sales fly...

And then watch the "consultants" market grow.  There will be posts like:  "...well I 
bought the hardware, installed, it works but I need xxxyyy, can any one log into my 
system and program this thing?..."
