In their most recent catalog, Grief Kit :-) offers an IBM-PC compatible
speech synthesizer board for around $75.00 I think.  It is based on one
of those SP-0256 chips (phoneme synthesizer) and I think it comes with some
software.

Does anybody out there have one?  Is it any good?  Do they provide any
C routines with it or is it all in BASIC ? (Opinion Omitted for brevity).
