I can't ship an entire machine, but I have several internal Doubletalk cards, as well as an external serial port interfacing Doubletalk, and a serial or USB interfacing Tripletalk I would be able to donate. The internal cards are ISA, though. While it's not impossible to get a board with ISA slots, it's pretty rare and certainly not consumer hardware anylonger. These old devices are about to get trashed, so if anyone wants them, let me know asap.
