Well, I saw an answer to your artic question from Doug.  The 
SynPhonix is the name of the synthesizer card.  For awhile, you 
couldn't run anything on that except artic vision and business 
vision.  They are now making a nodel of the synphonix that will 
allow other software to run but I'm not sure if you have to request 
that specially when you buy the system.  If, when it boots up and 
you run artic, it says "Visions enhanced speech translator" followed 
by the version number, you probably will need to buy the sonix 
program, which you can order from artic for $50.  You might try 
calling artic and giving them your serial number.  They might be 
able to tell from their records which version of the synthesizer you 
have.  As for your other question about silver express, I don't use 
that reader so couldn't tell you where to get it locally.  There are 
lots of boards that have it.  William Wilson, the moderator of this 
echo, has it on his bbs, blinklink.  The number there is 
(412)766-0732.  It's on other boards too but that's the only one 
whose number I can remember.  Maybe you could get your sysop to file 
request it but you may have to call and download it yourself.  Hope 
that helps.
