,----[ Quote ]
| Companies are turning to open-source PBXs as the economy worsens according to

| PBX account for nearly a fifth of the North American market - although a 
| rival company has dismissed the claims as 'headline-grabbing.'   
| 
| Because they are generally less expensive, open source products may become 
| attractive to more corporate users as their budgets are cut, laying the 
| groundwork for a growth spurt, said Eastern. "The price of [open-source] PBXs 
| is so low as to attract more than passing attention," says John Malone, 
| president and CEO of the group.
