I remember back over 30 years ago, when I was trying to put my first PC
together, I thought I just had to have Dectalk, because that is what I
heard when getting introduced to OCR stand alone products, such as
Kurzweil and Arkenstone. When listening to the Kurzweil stand alone, the
synth was Dectalk, while the Arkenstone was being demonstrated to me
using Artic BusinessVision. I really hated that Artic speech, but due to
financial constraints ended up with Artic anyway, and I actually learned
to like it. Now, I don't know if I could ever return to Artic After all
of these years (even if it were at all possible), but one thing for
certain, I cannot stand Dectalk.

Wow! I really like Eloquence, especially compared to (what is it) deck
talk? Whatever
the WE default speech synthesizer is.

Browse mode to read emails? I'm not doing it on the web. Oh, the
thing I don't like about eloquence, which is what jaws has, is not
only that it sounds like it's drunk with a plugged up nose, but that
if there is no punctuation mark after a certain amount of time, it
starts winding down like its batteries are dying. After all these
years, they have never fixed that. Shame on them! Pam.
