If there is a meeting tonight, Monday, July 19th, would someone post the 
meeting location info?

 >>  As a very general rule bigger is better!

Heh... Ok, I had no idea that power supplies only draw the power they 
need.  It makes total sense of course, but I always thought that maximum 
rating meant that the P/S drew that much power all the time. Duh.  
Thanks for the correction on that, Donn.

I'm currently hunting around for VoIP service and am just following the 
advice on NerdVittles.  If anyone has a suggestion for a VoIP provider 
for small business, I'd love to hear about your experience.  I'm getting 
ready to sign up for TeleSip, I think, since my immediate need is only 
for a single (800) number for USA and Canada for my business.  I'll 
eventually want some additional DiD's with China and Taiwan numbers.

For now, I'm going to just keep my current landline as my non-toll-free 
business line and hook it up to TrixBox with a Linksys / Sipura SPA-3000 
(http://store.voxilla.com/customer/product.php?productid=16144&cat=248&page=1) 
as suggested by NerdVittles.  I figure I need the 911 support.

Then eventually I'll add yet another DiD for fax support, but I'll save 
that for later.

If anyone has any advice for that setup, I'll listen!

Randy
