I am still looking for the DA that allows you to speak selected text in a word processor. I received mail for Kent Borg but I have been unable to get mail to him. Being to cheap for the other Networks, Usenet is my only avenue. If anyone could send it to me I would greatly appreciate it (if it is shareware). Doug Sturim TRW New London CT ds@clyde.ATT.COM

I received a desk accessory called MacTalker, which is
apparently supposed to produce speech from text in the
clipboard, with a free sample of the Best of Uptime sent
to me for answering a MacWorld promotion.
I say "apparently" because it doesn't work, at least in
my current system configuration (5mb Mac II, 6.0.2).
When I loaded it into my system under MultiFinder, it crashed
the system every time I called it. When I reloaded it under
the Finder, it doesn't do anything at all when called but
at least doesn't crash anything else.

You can get MacTalker DA from the people at UpTime magazine in Rhode Island. I don't have their address or phone with me at the moment, but they used to advertise in MacWorld magazine. Cost for them to send you the program is $14.95. If you need the address/phone, please send me e-mail. Jim Collymore
