You should be able to pick up a test FXO/FXS card for about $129.  I  
just don't see the winmodem as being a good way to "test" Asterisk.   
We do a lot of Asterisk installations.  If you ask here whether  
Asterisk can do what you want, I am sure we could give you a valid  
answer.

Buying a winmodem would just be throwing away money.  Analog lines  
with quality cards have fairly significant echo issues that need fine  
tuning as it is.  I suspect a winmodem would be nothing but  
frustration.  Just my two cents.
