Plain Talk
Speech manager
Text-to-Speech

If you have something like that : Macintosh Plus

:-) and you open the control panel "Speech" :

Control Panel Speech

You know something about an easy way to do “Speech Synthesis” ;-)

This control panel speaks the phrases stored with each
of the new MacinTalk 3 voices. Instead of the usual description
the comment for each voice is a funny or strange phrase.
This kind of hidden information is usually called an “Easter Egg”.
