*** What's New With TC ***

In case you don't know about our new program we are working on, the BSC Talking 
Clock, please visit this page:

http://www.blindsoftware.com/tc.htm

During beta testing, we have added some new features to the program:

* TC now supports playing like a cuckoo clock. If the cuckoo clock is selected 
as the hourly chime, at the top of each hour the cuckoo clock will sound
x times resembling a real cuckoo clock. I.E 10 times if it is 10 AM.

* Added ability to play different chimes/sound effects at quarter past the 
hour, half hour, quarter til the hour, and at the top of the hour.

* The time can now be spoken to you at the top of the hour, only at the half 
hour mark, both half hour and hour, every 15 minutes, or set to off.

* Added an atomic clock sync feature to the program that lets you sync your 
computer time manually or automatically at program startup.

* Added a "big ben" mode that will make tc act like the big ben clock. The 
feature uses real big ben sound effects from the real deal and they sound great!

*** System Requirements ***

TC requires Microsoft Text To Speech to be installed on your computer and 
DirectX version 8.0 or higher. If you are running Windows xp, you already have 
the necessary files so you do not have to install any additional files. If you 
are not running windows xp, we'd like to invite you at this time to visit our 
TC page to download the additional free files and install them prior to TC 
being released. This way, once you install TC, it will work immediately for  
you. You can download the additional files at this page:

http://www.blindsoftware.com/tc.htm

We'd also like to invite you to email in any suggestions for tc. If you have 
something in mind, please email us at support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx We'd love to 
hear from you! We've taken several suggestions that were emailed into us and 
put them in the program. Thanks to all who are emailing in~!


Regards,
the blindsoftware.com team!
