Subject: Really stupid question, but...

I know th answer to this already, most likely, but I can't resist
asking.

Actually, I have two questions.

Firstly, Being that really in all truth, under the hood, the Mac OS is
in 
deed Unix, If I go to a terminal, how likely is it, I could install the 
Debian package I bought of T T Synth, for Linux, register it, then, use
that 
with voice over.  I know you need

libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 or someting to that effect, don't have the
library 
name up in front a me.  It's basicly an older c++ library, but, being
that 
that synth was built around the Unix platform, etc. I just wonder if it 
could in theory, be done.

The other thing I wonder is, if I wanted to play with an old copy a out 
spoken, could I install it, and shut off voice over for a temporary
time, 
and see how it worked, or would I really need an older Mac for that.
No, I 
really don't wanna switch to outspoken, God no.  Im not that stupid, I'd

just outta curiousity like to see it in action.  Even if there were an
mp3 
somewhere a wsomeone using it.

Chris.
