It is worth pointing out again that NeXT's fax driver works with, and only with, the HSD/Interfax/Abaton fax modem. Other modems reported to work are the Dove (with a Dove supplied driver), a ZyXEL modem with the NXFax 3rd party driver, and possibly a Supra with a (not yet available) 3rd party driver. I clearly remember Steve Jobs saying at NeXTWorld Expo that 3.0 would support more fax devices; this isn't the case.
