Wonder if there is Eloquence for the Mac? Yes, Nuance makes that too now,
but it works good.

The new DecTalk is terrible. I love the DecTalk that was with access 32
and the express in the 90's.

It would be nice if the DECTalk voices were available. I've used a
DECTalk for the past 20 years or so. In my opinion, there are
no better than Paul and Betty. If Fonix would provide them for Mac OS,
I'd purchase them.

If this means that Alex will be gone, then I'll not be upgrading.
These voices, at least to my ears on just one listen, are a real step
backward from Alex. To be sure, I've so long been listening to Alex
that I've grown accustomed to him, but I don't think that's all there
is to it. I think Alex sounds more nuanced than the Nuance voices.
