My computer has a sexy female voice.

Here's how to do it:
Start with Linux. I recommend Kubuntu Feisty Fawn.
Never mind I fixed it! For the rest of you, here's how to do it:
sudo apt-get install kttsd festival
Download the Festvox female voice here: http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/cmu_arctic/packed/cmu_us_slt_arctic-0.95-release.zip
Copy the entire file (126 MB) to /usr/share/festival/voices/english
Set permissions and rename the folder so it will work:
sudo chmod -R 755 cmu_us_slt_arctic; ls -l
sudo mv cmu_us_slt_arctic cmu_us_slt_arctic_clunits
Use kttsmgr to configure the voice: Kmenu --> Utilities --> kttsmgr
You can tell Yelena's been gone too long.
