I bumped into this page: http://research.microsoft.com/srg/whistmusic/ when I was browsing the internet
 Scroll down to the bottom, and you'll hear some pretty amazing songs! Sung by text to speech synthesized voices! |

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing. Group: [MODERATOR] Posts: 3,874 Joined: 24-July 05 From: In Trouble Again... still? Member No.: 9,787  |
It'll be awhile before they hit the top ten, but still quite an advancement. There doesn't seem to be an end to where all this technology is taking humankind. Next thing will be a computer to walk your dog...

Wow, now that will be an interesting toy to play with on the pc. Specially since Im not really a good singer and its hard to get someone to sing to the music I make. Thats pretty cool.

Is it just me or does this seem to be one of the weirdest and probably most pointless things Microsoft has ever developed? Would people go out and buy a CD of Microsoft Sam singing "You Have Selected Microsoft Sam As The Computer's Default Voice"? It'd certainly not make the top ten.
