You have got to be kidding. I have vista home premium but I still need to
send and receive faxes!!!! I had this capability with XP, and I am very upset
that it is not available with Vista which I just installed yesterday Feb 3.
Does Microsoft believe that home users never receive or send faxes? What are
my options? How am I to view the faxes I have saved in my documents? I
urgently need to have this capability on my computer and I am sure I am not
alone in this need.
