I'm too tired to read all of this .. what I can do with $15/month? Executive summary.

Graham:

For a small office, local deployment, VOIP only (no POTS, aka Ma Bell lines, aka Traditional phone lines).
http://pbxinaflash.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10332 - an acer would do well.

http://pbxinaflash.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7365 is another good choice.

You can run it in the cloud as well.

PIAF / Incredible PBX also can run Hylafax / Avantfax.

Synapse with PBX integration is a super powerful combo.

Graham: if you just want to test out Incredible PBX, you can install it on almost any reasonable Laptop or PC.

This works well too.

I bought one of these devices to play with: Obihai OBi110 ATA

I'm deploying a new PBX soon, so I'll let you know how it goes.

Good timing: a new version of Incredible PBX was released Yesterday.

So, if I read this right, I don't need any adaptors .. just the PC and some VOIP phones .. if I don't use POTS phones and don't connect up a fax machine?

well, I installed this onto a spare laptop. I can login as root to the console .. but it won't accept the password for the pbx administrator when I try the web login.

What's the name of the user? Admin? admin? root? something else?

Yes.
You don't even need VOIP phones.
You could use VOIP softphones ... like .. xlite.

I use 2 POTS lines with a SangomaA20002D TDM card with Aastra57iCTs phones.

I bought a couple of old PCs .. to try it out instead of using the old laptop!

It'll run on almost anything.
It is easy to move to a faster PC if you want to later anyway.

Introducing Incredible PBX 3.0 and Incredible Fax 2.0

As Nerd Vittles begins its seventh year, a birthday bash is certainly in order. And today we have not one but two of Tom King's reworked masterpieces to introduce. The PIAF2™ introduction with CentOS 6.2™ and your choice of Asterisk® and FreePBX® versions has certainly brought its share of challenges. But, with the new year, we're finally comfortable recommending everyone make the switch. Almost everything is faster, more stable, and smoother with CentOS 6.2. Yes, the pain is worth the gain. But this new platform also meant significant rewrites of some of our VoIP workhorses, and today everything is finally ready for prime time.

I bought 8 cisco IP phones. Can I use them with this to get a PBX?

which cisco ip phones ?

Note: You'll probably want to install PIAF as a Virtual Machine.

Thanks to the terrific work of Darrell Dillman, today we have a new OpenVZ template for PBX in a Flash 2™ to introduce. It features the very latest 64-bit CentOS™ 6.2 with Asterisk® 1.8 and FreePBX® 2.9. Using the new OpenVZ template, you can create unlimited virtual machines in about ​

one minute​

per server! And you can boot your new virtual machines in about the same time. This new ​

PIAF2-OpenVZ template​

includes the usual PIAF2™ Feature Set including Google Voice for free calling in the U.S. and Canada. Once installed, you can add ​

Incredible PBX 3​

™ and ​

Incredible Fax 2​

™ in a few clicks.​
