Yes yes yes. All the people tell that Linux is free, but for working with a real screen reader like Speakup, it needs a hardware sinthesizer that costs a lot. And ... I have a Dec Talk PC1 internal hardware sinthesizer that is not supported by Linux. Great OS! It is cheaper to work under Windows, even though I need Linux.

What I'd really like to see in linux is a screen reader supporting software speach. That would make my life, and many other people's lives, much easier. You wouldn't have to lug your synth around with you all the time. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adam Myrow" <myrow@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Saturday, May 18, 2002 3:29 PM Subject: Re: interesting experiment. > For me, I'd like to see a good financial package in Linux.
