Has anyone done an Asterisk implementation on Window, and if you have, could you either point me to documentation on how to do it?
All the user-friendliness of Asterisk on the stability of Windows. 
IIRC, it doesn’t support anything but VoIP either.
This is a toy, I would never try to run anything in production on this.
For testing purposes, I have used * on Fedora core 4 (Linux) running under VMWare on Win XP.
It is great for development, as you can setup muliple (Virtual) * boxes on a single system, and even setup virtual networks (including limiting bandwidth and implimenting packet loss).
The real bonus for this is, you can use VMWare GSX (about $1500) or VMWare workstation (about $200) - (Both for Windows and/or Linux) and lift your virtual machine off your dev device, and install it straight into production.
This is a real bonus for pre-production testing, and fault finding for customers.
The nice thing about VMWare is that there are NO hardware dependant drivers for the OS, so a Linux/Asterisk image you built under a Windows/VMWare dev, will move straight over to a Linux/VMWare prod.
This certainly works well for VoIP only solutions, I have not tested it with any hardlines - drivers could be an issue here !

Hi Dave,
I’m thinking of buying VMWare GSX, but I’m not sure is it right for me. Is there any way I can test it before I buy it?
you can download a free vmware player now so if you can get someone to create a vmware linux virtual machine for you then you can try it out to see if it’s the right thing for you.
