H All,

I need a new fax machine. I am tired of having to destroy
fax film cartridges.

I send all my faxes from CEetOS and Hyla fax on my main
office computer. I do not receive because most of the time
I am in the field and the main office machine is off.

I got to thinking, to receive faxes, why not put FC12 on
an ATOM netbook/laptop with Hyla Fax and use that for
my receive fax machine instead.

Does this sound reasonable/insane?

Sounds like a reasonable solution to me.

A friend of mine uses an AA1 to host his home phone system, so yes,
I'd say it's a reasonable choice.

Out of curiosity, and by the way sorry for not being able to help, why not dump the fax entirely and
move on to emails? Nowadays the idea of using a fax sounds needlessly expensive.

The problem is that several critical industries are still hopelessly
stuck in the 70s, with no intention of evolving past that.

Try dealing with real estate brokers or lawyers - the only language they
speak (for official documents) is "fax machine".
