Hi Ken,
When you say, a c64, was that the Commodore 64? I heard that the Commodore 64 had a
built in synthesizer. I was given a program named Sams for the Atari 800 XL that
would talk. It was not a screen reader, but would say what ever you typed in. It
would even make the sound of any thing that you typed in. Kind of wish that sapi5
would still do that. <grin>
BTW the Atari 800 XL was out at the same time as the Commodore 64 and had the
same amount of ram etc.
At the time I was not happy going from the Atari 800 XL to an IBM PC because
the Atari 800 XL had four sound channels with effects and the PC only had one.
Just didn't seem to be the way to go for creating games with cool sounds.
