[ale] Virtualization recommendations

[Edward Holcroft]

I use VMWare ESXI free version to host an Asterisk (Elastix) box. Only thing
about ESXi that really sucks is the Windows-only client. On the pro side,
ESXi is very easy to set up and robust as anything.

As for timing issues running Asterisk as a VM - I heard this warning when I
first tried it but have not encountered any issues - maybe that's 'cos we
have a small setup here, only 24 extensions. It's been running like that for
over a year now without any problems.
