Apples. It's also running IncrediblePBX for voip and GoogleVoice integration via tcpip to the phone switch too.
For 256megs of ram it sure can do a ton of things all at once.
Think about everything done on old VAXen with 4M. ;)
Yeah on HILANT the MicroVAXen only have 20 MB each. Work fine though.

Not enough GPIO pins... You will need to multiplex the pins. I several 74HC595 to drive the LEDs, and I'm experimenting with 74HC165 to drive banks of DIP switches as input (although that project is quite freezing now). I posted some details in my blog (Blinkenlights: Not so difficult as I thought), with links to the code I have written for the 4.0 version of simh, and a java app with virtual LEDs also. My version, by the way, runs in an Arduino, but I also wrote a small "client" for the Pi. I just switched to the Arduino because I have heard horror stories about dead Raspis after stupid cabling mistakes messing with the GPIO pins...
