Talking Moose is, now version 3.0, distributed by Baseline Publishing, Inc.
Here's the address:

It will also speak Window title, menu selection, speak text in the clipboard,
and a couple silly things.  If you have AppleLink, check at the Promotion's
area, that's where I got mine when that have a Moose with a Mug.  Don't know
if the promotion is over or not.

Compatability?  I have a IIcx with 105 MB Quantum and 8 MB of RAM running
Virtual 2.03 for a total of 14 MB.  Two and one-third rows of Startup-icon,
don't know how many not shown (INIT cdev 3.0 takes awhile to load!).  The
only problem I found so far is GateKeeper which keep kick in when the Moose
try to speak menu or window.  Grant right to Moose does not work (seems like
request came from the program itself... I don't know!)  When I disabled
GateKeeper it is fine.  I still have SAM and Disinfectant.

Pretty cool!

Oh, I also have 264 RasterOps board.  The Moose is fine in any mode.
