Hi Cheryl. As far as I know, the dmos on the fonix site require you to be running ex windows. I dont know about the linuxRT link you found, it's probably just a link to the linux runtime product. I have to tell you though, that if you've already bought the 4.61 runtime, that you are not likely to like the 5.0 runtime voices. They sound like they have a mouth full of mush. I listened to them for about two minutes, and then reinstalled my dectalk 4.61 runtime. It sounds much more like the dectalk express and earlier dectalk products. Hope this helps. I see as I'm writing this that Kenny also responded to you, so I guess that means you may get the same information twice.
