Ahh yes! That was one of the synths I listed as a suggestion to add to the BN. I had a DECTalk PC2 since windows 95, and I was upset that I couldn't use it with any OS after windows 98. I suppose it's all a personal preference...

Hey.  Now I like the bn speech, but what about tec-talk?  I love dec's
reading voice... it's so much better.  Just my .02.

I would love to see an alternative synthesizer offered.  Keynote, for me
is the worst speech there is.  Now, folks, before you fire up the flame
throwers, this is my opinion, I am not suggesting that Keynote go away,
I am suggesting that a 2nd speech synthesizer be added as a possible
option for those of us who simply don't like Keynote speech.
When I use a Braillenote, I never use the speech, because I find the
inflection and rhythm of the speech simply gets on my nerves.

Heavens, No!  Leave the synth alone!  It sounds good and it's response
is good.
