I cold easilly afford a dectalk but why pay a lot of money for something that sounds the way it does? I always like hardware synthesizers over software ones so if I really wanted a laptop to have something portable I could just get and use a transport. That is not much bigger than the external keypad I already use for the laptop anyway. So I'm not nuts for liking the doubletalk and because I like its speech does not mean I can't afford better.
