Hi Stefen, All I can say is I go way back before Jaws for Dos was even invented. My first speech synth was an echo for an Apple 2-E, and the text games of the mid 80's era were fun. Anyway, I can remember the days when I had to use Jaws without such a thing as a software synth. In high school I had to carry around a 486 laptop with a dectalk express in my backpack which I plugged in after I got the laptop all setup on a table in the class room, and it was not a very portible setup. In fact, most of the time rather than bringing my Dectalk to school I turned on my Braille N Speak and ran it through speechbox mode with JFD and JFW 1.x. That was aweful speech!
