      HI ALL!!
         Lately I've been seeing lots of MODEMS and FAX CARDS either for
      sale or QUESTIONS about.. I was wondering whether someone could help
      me with a QUESTIONS i have about FAX CARDS and MODEM cards..:
           WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FAX CARD AND A MODEM??
           AREN'T THEY THE SAME THING?? IF NOT HOW DOES A FAX CARD SEND
           A MESSAGE (BINARY, TEXT, OR ANYTHING ELSE???)?? 
       I'm new to computers so please forgive me for not really understanding
       much of the tech talk...

				any info will be appreciated
