[DECtalk] File association problem

Hi,

As for the first song I ever heard, that would have to be "Poisoning Pigeons 
in the Park," a recording of which Ed Potter played at the end of one 
edition of Playback Magazine. Yes, I do remember the later DOS software 
packages including a segment of "Moonlight in Vermont." First time I heard 
that one was on a DECtalk Express.
