I am currently using OUtspoken to access the macintosh OS.  I am told that
it will not work reliably under system 6.0.7+ and would like a 
replacement.  If any one has any information on other packages please
mail back to me, or post here.

I am not aware of any other speech packages for the Macintosh.  I have read
about at least one experimental word processing program, but not an access
system.  Berkeley Systems also has a large-print access system for the Mac.
I have just gotten OutSpoken, and haven't used a lot.  What software packages,
such as Microsoft word, etc., do you use and find work well with it.
