I have used both Quadram JTFax products, the 4800 and 9600 boards. I still
use the 9600 version in my home machine, and can happily recommend it. The
TSR really doesn't interfere - just as advertised. It will receive in the
background while you're busy doing almost anything. I have found no conflicts
other than the documented incompatibility with Windows, which I don't run,
and an occasional difficulty with the application capture of MS Word. The
current software (available for download from the HAYES bbs at 1-800-USHAYES
takes about 127K.

The strength of the machine based fax is the disk space you have for stuff
incoming, and the application capture. The weakness is that you must scan documents, ergo scanner is needed. Resolution at the receiving end is superior to 
standalone fax machines, speed tends to be slower.

Hope this helps somewhat.

Anyone out there have any experience with the JT FAX 9600 board from Hayes
(used to be sold by Quadram)? I was wondering how well it ran in TSR mode.
How much RAM does it take up?  I'd appreciate any info you might have on
this board.. Thanks...todd
