I'd looked into this recently for a text to speech app I'd gotten for a
participant who cannot speak....while his communication device is out for
repairs.


>From what I'd seen in searching, Windows 7 no longer give you access to as

many voices as earlier versions did.

And the vendor of the product wanted $29/voice. The one that comes with
Win 7 is female...the student is male and would like...you guessed it, a
male voice.

I may not have searched far enough but that was what I found...wasn't
comparing 32 to 64 bit.
