>>Nothing can replace a real dedicated fax machine.

Yes, it can. I have replaced a real, dedicated fax machine
with nothing. Translation: I don't have one.

It's amusing. When someone says "Send me a fax" or "I'll
fax it to you" I say "Well, I CAN receive [send] a fax,
but I have to reconfigure my PC, reboot, and you'll have
to let me know just when it's coming [you can receive it]."

Without exception there's an instant better alternative.
Email of course with formatted attachments is the most
reasonable. It's just a knee jerk kick from an outmoded
technology, I conclude.
