FAX

Does Vista have a fax capability anywhere? I used to use XP and had fax
capability, now with Vista I can't find that same capability.
Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks
Bill

If you have Vista Ultimate or Business editions then a fax applications is
built in. If you are running any of the other editions of Vista then there
is no fax capability. You will need a third party faxing applications to fax
from Vista Home, Home premium.

If by any chance you do have Vista Ultimate or Business then the fax option
can be found on the start menu (Start>All Programs>Windows Fax and Scan).

another wonderful and inexpensive product is RKS Fax.
I have been using it since win 98 but had to purchase a new one for xp and
vista.
Very low overhead and reliable and great tech support.
