I have been very happy with eFax.com. It's FREE; you get your own 
California number; and you get a slick fax-reader program that runs just 
great on the mac. I've had a little problem with printing from it (20 
min/pg), but I doubt that's the eFax software--probably just my flaky 
computer.

Local numbers, 800 numbers, and a wide variety of other services are 
available for a fee.
