I can't agree with the idea that Synthavoice should be working on an
NT screen reader. IBM has already shown in OS/2 Warp 4 that it is
quite feasible and apropos for voice support to be an OS-supplied
interface, and I'd rather see pressure for Microsoft to adopt IBM's
solution to have standard hooks.
An X solution is also laudable, because it cannot be justifiable to
lock a segment of users into a proprietary solution because of a disability.
(Let Microsoft support X? Why not?)
