OK, and I am sorry about saying this, but what sollution do I have with
os9.22. I know, I agree with you, man, using a Tiger system would be a lot
better, but, again, I am really really bad off financially. I cannot afford
to get a system like this. I need to work with what I have. I understand
and I whole heartedly agree it's not gonna really be very good, but, at
least it would work. It's better than nothing at all. Don't you agree?
It's not that I don't wish to take hyour suggestion, believe me i do, but
when you never would really have enough to get one, what're you gonna do.
And at literally 10 20 if I am lucky dollars at the end of the month, I'd be
here till the day I died trying to buy the thing.
Chris.

ideally what you need friend is the following
G3 blue and white tower with 400mhz processor. this is an upgradeable mac
and can take most components including a CPU upgrade. or even better a G4
450. these will take tiger but its recommended to get some spare sticks
of memory to upgrade it. also a larger hard drive. say 80gb disk.
that way tiger will work happily and run voiceover.
sadly outspoken is not easily available and for you to run OS 9.2.2
effectively then you need the very last version of outspoken which is 9.2
so that you dont get a crash or anything.
best thing is a tiger based system that way you can get things done much
better. use the net, do what you need to etc.

OK guys. At this time, though I'd prefer some way to get Tiger on this
old beat up piece a junk system everyone clames I am getting, it's just
not apparently happenin, so, I'd like to make a plea and a request: If
anyone has it, remember I do have dinwos based machines too. I also do
have Nero on them. It it possible that someone could either make me an
iso of an Outspoken 9 *demo* CD, notice it's not like I'm asking for the
real whole product, I am only asking for the demo. All web sites from
Google are turning up useless. According to what I read, I need no
sighted help and need no prior speech to install it. So, if someone
could please helop me out, you will make my morning as then I'd have
something to play with today. It's not voice over, but I pretty well
give up on this. One person and I conversed last night. I will not
reveal his or her name, nor will I even say if they are on this list or
not. I'll only say that according to them, if I can find certain
hardware parts, like a Celeron processor, etc... Anyway, Remember folks:
Money is an issue. I have absolutely no money. After my bills and rent
and such, I literally am lucky to have $10 not 100, but 10 if even that
left. I'm sorry upgrading this thing is simply not possible. I have
what I have and if it isn't good enough, then well... it's either this,
or nothing. I know it may be a whole CD like 3 or 400MB, but either
send space or whatever, if you could upload it, I can even give you an
ftp site you can put it on if needed. I know it's big, but it would
help me tremendously, again, it's not v o, nor is it the full Outspoken,
but, at least it would get me by until I could find something else.
Thanks.
Chris.
