No faxes with Vista H.Premium?

[javierdlm001]

Hi all,

I'm new here (again) ...
Is that time again for me to upgrade my system. So I've been updating myself about more current technologies. And Vista is no exception. According to this comparison chart the Home Premium Ed cannot receive/send faxes out of the box. Neither the Business Ed can burn DVDs. Can someone here confirm that please?
If this is true I'll have to get the most expensive edition (Ultimate).

Thanks in advance guys

Also, can someone tell me why my attempted link didn't work? I thought I did it just as the example in the TGML tags page.

Correct, the home editions do not include faxing software. However, the modem manufacturer (or a system OEM) might.

Business edition does not include the media center functions which include the software to create a video/movie dvd. However, it will burn dvd's just fine and many dvd burners (or a system OEM) might include enhanced burning sofware.

As for this link, I have no idea - nothing looks visibly wrong unless there might be an extra space in there or something.

The above link is: [ignore]this[/ignore]

Thanks a bunch Smah
I might go with the Ultimate to avoid having more third-party programs installed.

As for the link, correct you are: there is a space at the end of the link itself
Too bad I can't edit that post now, oh well!

Thanks again,
