However, with newer high-speed microprocessors and large RAM installations, the difference is virtually meaningless. A system with a microprocessor faster than 300 MHz. or so and with 256 meg of RAM installed really shouldn't be overburdened with a software synthesizer like Eloquence. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jim grimsby" <jimgrims@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 23, 2004 7:15 AM Subject: RE: where do you get a dectalk express repaired. Now on the subject of the dectalk express it is a hard ware synthesizer. So the only memory it uses is the driver that jaws loads to interface with the synthesizer. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of emarquette Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 7:02 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: where do you get a dectalk express repaired. I don't want to buy or sell a DecTalk Express. What I am wondering is whether anyone has compared resource utilization as between, a Destalk Express which uses virtually no resources (or so I am told) and, for example, Eloquence. Are the savings significant? I know I am perfectly happy with Eloquence, but I use the DecTalk Express at work because it (I am hoping) frees up resources for very memory-intensive applications I tend to use. Thanks in advance!

I'll agree to that. I wanted to add, this might be a hair off topic but if you want to discuss the Dec Express let me know privately, offlist so as to not clutter it up, and I'll be glad to talk with you more about it. I've got one I'm looking to either sell or trade, for an external soundcard. I do apologize but I saw this and was in a hurry as I was leaving the office and dropped this off here. Thanks and take care. -- To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
