speakup synth questions

[W. Nick Dotson]

Yes, the Reading Edge certainly has a DEC-Talk synthesizer built into it.  However, the version was sort of an "odd-
duck", and the 25-pin female port on the rear of the machine actually has 2 9-pin connectors.  So, one must have a 
copy of the manual to get the specs for the cable.

Couple questions.
First, I have a friend who is interested in installing linux. She has an
old telesensory reading edge machine that she thinks will act as an
external dectalk synth, but isn't sure.  anyone know if this is true or
not?
Hi,  it should the version of dectalk software used in that device was
dectalk 3.0 not 2.0 as was the external dectalk but if memory serves me
right they should be compatible.
