It seems to me that they release a new iPhone every few months, memory cards are getting smaller and holding more info, and nobody here knows how to use the fax machine anymore. A recent survey found what we think will most likely disappear from offices within the next 5 years. What do you think about the list? Do you agree or is something missing from the list?
