Well, I've forgotten the original request of this thread, but the
reactions of my students to the Mac OS voices is that they are wayy cool
(remember, however, that they are developing apps for kiddies and also
working on game dev, so maybe goofy, time-warped voices are what is called
for in our particular situation).

Doesn't AT&T have some nice, cross-plat voices?  Or, at least, Win voices?

Probably not free, though...

Now my experience in this respect is limited to Mac & Win: both of which feature really bad voices - the Mac ones have been trotted out with each version of the operating system for at least 10 years never beeing upgraded; they all sound seriously warped. Win XP comes with one installed.
