Hi: The thing that made me come to that conclusion was a tape Doug made for TSI (TeleSensory Systems, Inc.) about their screen-reader called Vert Plus was called Valedictory Speech. In the tape, Doug had Vert Plus (using the Prose 4000) speech synthesizer sounding as if he was giving a valedictory speech in front of an audience. I couldn't help feeling that Vert Plus sounded a little smug, as if to say, I'm fantastic, and, if you don't have a lot of money, you can't afford my excellent services. Just my feeling back then, as I knew I'd never be able to afford that particular speech system.
Actually, come to think of it, their is a Sapi 4 synth that sounds just a little like the Prose. It's called TrueVoice. Maybe not quite as good as the Prose, but, just reminds me of it a little.
