Yes, it is possible to use the PC speaker to do crude speech synthesis.  I
believe that there was a program on one of the bulletin boards here in 
Champaign that allowed a user to input phonetic strings and it would use them
to make the PC "talk".  I don't remember what the name of the program was but
maybe someone in netland might.
