Apple added a few higher quality ones a couple of years ago. While
most of the voices are just meant to be funny (& yes, my kids love
them too), there are a few that sound reasonably good. I use them a
lot and people get used to the sound very quickly.

Well, I've forgotten the original request of this thread, but the
reactions of my students to the Mac OS voices is that they are wayy cool
(remember, however, that they are developing apps for kiddies and also
working on game dev, so maybe goofy, time-warped voices are what is called
for in our particular situation).

Doesn't AT&T have some nice, cross-plat voices?  Or, at least, Win voices?

Probably not free, though...

each version of the operating system for at least 10 years never beeing upgraded; they 
all sound seriously warped. Win XP comes with one installed.
