Where do I start? Every new thing I learn is technology related and mind boggling. But if I think back,I do remember thinking just how amazing the introduction of the fax machine was and the actual function it performed!! I was shown how to place a page (or number of pages) in the correct position, key in a number, press a "go" button and the page just fed through the machine in front of me. But, more amazingly at the other end, the receiver, another person, was retrieving a copy of what was actually in my hand. Wow!!

And we all know this is "old hat" now, but it is still a desirable format for for the transmission of documents / written word, in an instant.
