[DECtalk] question about sapi dectalk

Hi,
Chances are that those who will want a sapi Dectalk are going to be ones who use Dectalk a lot and know what it sounds like. I'm pretty sure most of those people won't automatically put Dectalk at fault once they have decided they don't like the Sapi synth. With that said, I believe those who like Dectalk as much as we do aren't going to let something like this ruin Dectalk's image.

  TThat's the thing, this is only the first try and we were originally told we would have 3 more to sample.  And in a blink of an eye, this is it.

    that is sad. but if they would act like that, i wouldn't blame them for scrapping them. well, unless they didn't even try anything. now if they did an couldn't fix it, then i don't blame them at all
