Answer 1

There are lots of problems faxing with the fax utilities provided in Macs.
It appears that Apple forums are very poorly supported. Often, I have received no inputs to a question, too.
The last few Macs I used had fax utilities based on FAXstfX softwarre - all of which have been horribly buggy, in my experience.
Apple appears not to care.
Similarly, in my experience, I and many others have posted reports of the Safari browser hanging (resulting in the endlessly spinning polychrome wheel). Similarly, Apple appears not to care.
I need a new laptop, and I am probably going to go for a PC because Apple technical support is no better than what I can get for a PC, and a PC is three times less expensive than a Mac.
