Considering writing a synth emulator for use with virtual machines

[Brent Harding]

I thought I heard someone mention something called Echospeak once that would 
support the commands of an echo synthesizer on a virtual serial port and 
then tell Jaws in Windows to speak what Speakup sent. I never found info 
about this anywhere, so it may have just been an idea.
