Using an XT with FAX
While it can't hurt to try, you may be dissapointed running FAX and/or
Voice software in an XT machine. Not only the processor is SLOW, the hard
drive is not usually fast enough to access the files as quickly as needed.
Even some 286 will have trouble, and the ones that do work are quite slow
(my 2nd 'fax sending machine' is a 286, so I know). Older machines are also
more likely to have a BIOS with some problems with serial/comports, or
other things. Also, Dos 3.3 may work better than a later dos which uses
more memory.
