Amy Crazy Cat Woman Registered: 10/26/03 Posts: 18601 Loc: Litter Box	I'm finding most the books that are selling for around $20 online at the Library on CD. Is there any reason to not get them from the library? _________________________ A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

trallyus The IDEA Man Registered: 11/11/03 Posts: 33102 Loc: ohio	Quote: *Meow Kitty said:* I don't know if I could listen to those voices. If you want a sample of the voices I use - the neospeech voices - go to http://vhost.oddcast.com/vhost_minisite/demos/tts/tts_example.html and type something in and choose the kate or paul voices and see what the difference is between the ones that come with microsoft Mind you I bought the neospeech voices from zabaware along with ultra hal but they are worth it compared to the ones that come with the computer by default. They take up like 300 megs of space and are pretty realistic when used properly That oddcast demo only works 3 times then you need Clear the "oddjack" cookie after three entries to do more.
