Re: rant about insanely high prices!
Back when Digital was carrying Dectalk, a Dectalk 4.3 software development kit, which is what screen reader manufacturers would have obtained, sold for $500 for a copy with 4 concurrent licenses for 4 speech objects, that would be 4 applications. In addition to Dectalk's api, you also had access to MS Sapi, though in the earlier days it could have been sapi3. That was a very fair price at the time, and probably still would be now if Force Computers and Speech FX didn't screw with the sound so damn much, that's where charging thousands for it is absolutely absurd.
