With all due respect to you Hal we reasearch and advise
which products will meet our clients needs at the best
cost. Your views are wrong and of no assistance in this
matter.
I have many other clients running VSI Fax on SCO, Sun,
Linux and others using Zetafax. The use of XP Pro was a
prudent choice given the published capabilities and past
installs with many other clients. Given that it took 5
hours of calls, bounced back and forth between pre-sales
and technical support, to answer the simple
question "what product will support concurrent faxing?"
shows they do not think of their installed client base
when the do things such as this.
In the future if you do not have contructive comments
regarding the posted matter please refrain from replying.
