Rating:  - * My WinFax Pro 10.02 works perfectly fine on XP-SP2 ... I am surprised to see all the negative reviews on this product, which has been working perfectly since I had Windows 2000, then XP with SP2. Now that I have a new laptop with Vista, I am looking to see which version of WinFax will work with Vista. The only time I had problems with WinFax was that I installed language pack (I think Arabic or Chinese), and the support staff was very helpful. After I uninstalled the language pack, it never gave me headache. I guess I have been the lucky one! Rating: - * Faxing from your Computer ... If you want to save and keep faxes then this is one of the best solutions whereby you can and you do it yourself. Of course, this is a PC product and requires not only a computer, but also a modem and telephone line hooked up to the computer. You will never loose a fax again! It is easy to install and easy to use. If you need to fax originals (not computer generated material, like signed documents), then you will also need a scanner. Rating:  - * Plan to sit in front of your computer... ... Since upgrading to XP Pro and DSL, I have had scarce need for faxing. When the need did arise, I installed an old 56k modem I had laying around and activated the XP faxing utility to receive. Works fine and distinguishes between voice and fax. I find out that the XP fax utility won't handle attachments, and suddenly I have a need to fax a receipt. Fine. I find a cheap version of WF Pro on an auction site so now I can handle anything that comes my way. Right? Not really. If you set it to automatic receive, all your callers will hear that annoying fax ring. If you disable automatic receive, you'll need to be in front of your computer to receive a fax! Summary: This is an antiquated, bloated program. It installs a ton of unneeded garbage - and then won't even distinguish between voice and fax incoming calls. Although better than WXP's built in faxing utility, not worth buying unless you have a lot of time on your hands or a computer dedicated to it. Rating: - * Without VISTA, WinFaxPro is the GREATEST!!! ... I love WinFaxPro, as does everyone and every company I fax. I love the cartoons, the flexibility and most especially a complete copy of everything I have ever faxed to anyone that I can access instantly. Unfortunately, since Norton got their hands on it (after DelRino -sp?- and Symatec, things have been going downhill. I don't know if that other person's comment that they never plan on updating to VISTA is true, but if it is, I will be heart-broken. But I do believe them, as WinFaxPro is not shown on the Symatec website as being one of their products. But then again, maybe they sold it to someone else? I refuse to give up completely, when I was able to install 10.03 and it DOES work, altho' it only works for one fax before I have to reboot. But this is only since I got a Vista machine. It works fine with XP, SP2 and everything prior. And if you aren't running Vista, do yourself a favor and get this program. WinFaxPro is a wonderful program and I have had every version since 2.0! Once you gotten used to it, you won't know how to live without it! Which is why everyone here is giving it such low ratings. It's heart-breaking to lose a great program and with enough pressure, I am sure Symatec will realize that it would be well worth their time to do whatever they have to do to make it work with Vista. It can't be that difficult. And WHY id MICROSOFT have to change something in VISTA that EVERY LAST PROGRAM I own has had to be changed to make it work?!?! I'm sorry, but I can't blame Symatec or WinFax for that. I have already spent 2 months finding updates for each program I have and I am no-where near finished. That would be MS's error in my book! Heck, every driver has to be changed, as well! I blame Microsoft, myself. Rating:  - * Bye Bye Winfax Pro ... This has been a great product through the years. Unfortunately Symantec has decided in their stupid wisdom to discontuinue it. It will not work under Vista. On to something better! |
It's three movies in one, beginning when punctuality-obsessed Federal Express systems engineer Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks) departs on Christmas Eve to escort an ill-fated flight of FedEx packages. Following a mid-Pacific plane crash, movie number two chronicles Chuck's four-year survival on a remote island, totally alone save for a Wilson volleyball (aptly named "Wilson") that becomes Chuck's closest "friend." Movie number three leads up to Chuck's rescue and an awkward encounter with his ex-girlfriend Kelly (Helen Hunt, in a thankless role), for whom Chuck has seemingly risen from the grave.
It's fascinating to witness Chuck's emerging survival skills, and Hanks's remarkable physical transformation is matched by his finely tuned performance. With slow, rhythmic camera moves and brilliant use of sound, Zemeckis wisely avoids the postcard prettiness of The Black Stallion and The Blue Lagoon to emphasize the harshness of Chuck's ascetic solitude, and this stylistic restraint allows Cast Away to resonate more than one might expect. Even the final scene--which feels like a crowd-pleasing compromise--offers hope without shoving it down our throats. You may not feel the emotional rush that you're meant to feel, but Cast Away remains a respectable effort. --Jeff Shannon
