Tired of getting up from your desk to fax a document? Have you ever wondered why your company's call center maintains wall-sized desks of fax machines? Employees at many large organizations are asking the same questions. Fortunately, so is Biscom, Inc. While there are a few companies providing enterprise fax solutions, Biscom, in this author's opinion, stands out as the market leader.

i first flew over few sentences in the article and thought: "paid ad", then i went straight over to the comments, to read a debate on this subject.
after reading the comments, and then reading all pages of the article, i now have the following major point of view:
the whole faxing thing has nothing to do with an os, so it shouldn't be here. like there are no articles about office suits or editors, aren't they? osnews.com should stay os-centric.
okay, then here are some points, why i still consider this article an ad, whether someone got paid for it or not:
- it is about an unknown product from an unknown company and the purpose of this article was to advertise about it to the masses.
- it is not a comparison, but solely dedicated only to this commercial software product.
- it is about commercial product and this makes a huge difference for me. for me, f/oss is not the same and not even equal to commercial software. if it were about a f/oss fax server software, then i would not consider it an ad. but still consider it giga-off-topic, see above, my major pov.
you can call it "software racism", but for me it is not. i just do not want to get news about commercial applications (= ads) here, where i was used to get info about operating systems, whether commercial or not.
if this is going to change - bad, as it is a good site. and sure, i will consider eugenias advice and go away, if this changes will come.
i am a little not up-to-date, eugenia: you wrote, that you are out of this site. ?!?. please, point me to informations about why it became so, who is ruling osnews now, which direction will the site take and so on, thank you in advice.
