Are you opening a museum for obsolete telecom hardware?

Ripco still pays for a fax service but probably not for much longer.

This entire year it received a grand total of 1 (one) fax from some spam
roofing company. Asking people these days to send a fax is equal to asking
them to repeatedly stab a fork into the eyes of their youngest male child.

Fax seems to have followed the footsteps of sending telegrams.

For one lousy fax, why not just plug in a fax machine? You could also
run your own fax server. HylaFAX would be overkill, but it's free,
as an example.

I've still got a 20 year old fax machine. I've got a line from one of the
Google Voice numbers plugged into it. Don't recall sending a fax to
anyone of late aside from IRS.

Yep, that about sums it up.

It's a sunk cost. It still works. It takes plain paper. I can use it
with VoIP. I don't need to send faxspam to anyone, and I'm not paying
oodles for a fax receiving service so I have the option of receiving
one fax a year but converting it into a different electronic form. btw,
the fax machine was networkable with its own adapter but I have to run
an application using an older version of the MS-DOS command processor.

That sums it up.
