I'm actually a big double talk fan. I remember the first time I heard it, it
was back when I was in high school. My school had an apple 2 gs, and a copy
of apple works. The only speech I had heard up until then was echo, and the
SSI263 synths, such as artic and the accent. I thought the double talk was a
big improvement over those, and I've liked it ever since. When I had a
computer with isa slots, I always used the doubletalk pc. I've thought about
getting a triple talk since computers don't use isa slots anymore.
