Setting up efax (or mgetty) to work on a LRP system should be fairly
easy; the problem with Linux (and any Linux in general) is the current
lack of good fax management or general fax programs.  If you live and
breathe in /bin/sh, efax may be enough; however, if you want your Gramma
to use a Linux fax program, it better be much easier to use...  I'm
still looking for something that will fit that bill.

One more reason to suffer under Microsoft oppression for a little while
longer - even MacOS doesn't have any decent fax programs...  I'd rather
be under Steve's foolhardiness than Bill's oppression :-) but of course
Linus' goodwill is even better :-)
