xAP and xPL are both very lightweight in terms of cpu requirements - and
as all xAP/xPL apps can reside on any PC on your network you could host
a load of x apps running here eg for CallerID, TV listings, Weather,
Rio/MVP , SliMP3 display etc etc ??

You probbaly dont have the space for any asterisk cards I guess.

Are you x'd yet ?
