High Anthony, The sound cards for Mac systems already have the speech synthesizer belt in to them. Screen reading software is not needed in less you are going to install some kind of a windows operating system on them. The newer Mack systems can be used either way. You can run them as PCs or you can run them as Macs. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anthony Tom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio Discussion List" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2007 9:57 PM Subject: Re: New PC Software Restores Audio recordings...
