But in the book Timeline, the time travel machine was a giant fax machine.

Obviously, we must keep the technology alive until we unlock all the secrets of the fax machine.

My grandmother-in-law has a fax machine, and as far as I can tell, she hasn't gotten a legitimate fax since she retired in 2004.  But she keeps buying paper and toner, and carefully sorts through the stacks of Disney Vacation Offers she gets each day.

No. A fax server merely keeps this antiquated and replaceable technology solvent for a little longer.
