Hay Guys;
You have to excuse andy's comment, he's a newbee tech and has little experience in these matters......

 Dude! You guys are fucking hardware
 pimps!!! Allstar is the the shit, and thanks for writing
 such bitching software!

 I already know how to build a simple transistor switch....

 How do you set up Asterisk to use the parallel port? What
