+A PBX is only really useful if you can get calls into it. Of course, you
+can use Asterisk with VoIP calls (SIP, H.323, IAX), but you can also talk
+to the real PSTN through various cards.
+
+Supported Hardware is divided into two general groups: Zaptel devices and
+non-zaptel devices. The Zaptel compatible hardware supports pseudo-TDM
+conferencing and all call features through chan_zap, whereas non-zaptel
+compatible hardware may have different features.
