I love my Brother MFC 4650 - laser printer, fax, scanner, copier. Kinko has lost most of my copier business, let alone fax. It works beautifully. I'm never going back to inkjet. peter

JG, Peter's Brother device sounds like a good solution. An alternative would be to get a printer and a separate scanner. Then subscribe to the free efax. efax.com It converts incoming faxes to e-mail, accessible from any computer. For outgoing faxes you could use any PC fax program after scanning the paper original. But the Brother doesn't require you to fire up your PC for faxing, I think? Gottfried Gottfried

JG, I have a Compaq A900 I bought at Radio Shack. Got a heck of a deal. CPQ had a $50 rebate on the machine, and RS had it on sale. It faxes,(really fast, scans into memory before dialing), color scans, copies, and is a color printer. All plain paper. I really like it. Have fun, Phil P.S. I am neutral on CPQ as an investment. P.P.S. It takes a fair amount of HD space to load all of the programs that comes with the machine. Of course, you don't have to load all of them if you don't want them.
