I use fred, because it's the closest to what I'm used to. However, bruce isn't bad, and if you're up for female voices, vicky isn't bad, though victoria bothers me. She always sounds like she's trying to seduce you with the way she talks. Drives me nuts. There's some rather unique voices too. (ones I'd use for games, but not for normal usage) like bad news, bubles and the one that sounds deranged. On Jun 6, 2007, at 7:51 PM, Doug Smith wrote: > That's a great idea.
