Hum. Voices are such a matter of preference, but personally I thing realspeak is attrotious and I try to get my clients off of it as soon as I can. Elloquence is pretty horrible too. Dektalk is not bad but it's fallen a long way from the old hardware days. Alex runs a little faster in sl than than he did in leopard, and so he's tollerable now. Fred's better. I'm kind'a happy with espeak even though every one else hates it.
For me though it comes down to speed and stability, and as long as it pronounces things properly I don't really care if it doesn't sound anything like a human voice.
