How To Teach Your PC To Fax--And More
by Preston Gralla, contributing Columnist at AnchorDesk (www.anchordesk.com)
    Who needs a Fax machine when you have a PC? No one! Believe it or not, your PC can do everything a fax machine can do, and more.

    All you need is the right software. I've found three programs in ZDNet Downloads that let you say good-bye to your fax machine forever - or never waste money on one in the first place.

    MightyFax lets you send faxes from within any Windows application you can print from. It also allows your PC to receive faxes and adds graphics to cover sheets. (Shareware/Windows)
    FaxWizard2000 is another app that enables you to fax from within Windows applications. It also broadcasts faxes to multiple people, includes a database for storing contact information, and converts a wide array of graphics types to a faxable format. (Shareware/Windows)

    VentaFax and Voice uses your PC to send and receive faxes. But that's not all. It also lets your PC act as an answering machine. And if you have Caller ID, it will supply caller numbers as well. (Shareware/Windows)

    If you hate dealing with fax machines, or don't want to pay to buy a new one, try these downloads. They make faxing convenient, easy and cheap.
