A simple PC? Thats just asking for trouble. In my experience if this  
is an enterprise, you would need atleast a HP ML 150 with redundant  
PSU and Raid 5  + 1 spare disk, redundant fans EVERYWHERE! :)

Dont get me wrong. I think the idea of having a USB channel bank is  
great- but deployment in distributed or a 'campus' network would be  
very problematic compared to a quintum/grandstream SIP gateway  
(completely solid state / no pc required/ consumes little power)
