Hello Rachel, For Snow Leopard and below, the only voices that work properly without crashing the system are the Infovox iVox voices made by Acapela and sold by Assistiveware. They cost €99 for the first language pack and €49.50 for subsequent packs. That's why I said you'd be better off upgrading to Lion where you can get as many voices as you like for no extra cost. I've been enjoying being able to add German, Spanish and Italian to my collection of voices. Previously, I just had English and French.
I still prefer the Acapela voices, but probably wouldn't have bothered getting them had French voices been available from Apple. I remember you asked about VisioVoice. This is software for low vision users. I'm afraid I don't understand it very well, being totally blind myself. But my husband helps low vision users set up VisioVoice to their liking.
