[comp.sys.mac] Own an SE? Can you do me a favor?

I'm terribly interested to see how Macintalk (the speech driver) responds to
an SE.  According to some APDA literature, it doesn't work on an SE.

Could some kind soul with access to an SE try Macintalk and let me know what
happens?  (system error, or garbled speech, etc.)  If you own a copy of
speechlab, could you see if the Reader mechanism still works (i.e. does
it still translate speech into phonemes)?

Thanks in advance to all responders.

I have the game/simulator ORBITER, which has a Macintalk file in it.  I've had
no problems hearing or understanding the speech of the Macintalk software.  I'm
running on a dual-floppy SE.
