Fax program in Windows Vista

I have been using the default fax driver that comes with Windows XP for a long time, and imagine my disappointment when I switched to Windows Vista Home Premium and found that Microsoft does not provide the same fax drive anymore. It only comes with Windows Vista Business edition. Can't understand why this is so. Doesn't home users also send and received fax, like the Windows XP home users?

Anyway, since I need to use my system to send faxes at times, so I search and tried some fax programs for Windows Vista. Found the following two programs from a number of user discussions:

1) Snappy Fax (US$29.99, for standalone version)

2) RKS Fax (US19.90)

I actually like the RKS Fax better and it's cheaper. But I have already settled with Snappy Fax for easier payment options. Anyway both serves my purpose well though.

You can download and purchase either of the above programs from below sites. Both of them can be used as trial for a period of 30 days beofre you decided which suites your requirement best.

1) Snappy Fax Version 4.0
