    Speak and Spell--wow that brings back memories.

    Yes I did have one of those. And yes, that robotic voice did sound a bit demonic.

    i loved that thing. especially the voice. you probably had some bad experience with a robot or something when you were little and you associate it with that. maybe a scary movie with robots in it.

    Yes, and the little owl who helped with math. I wish I still had it for my daughter. Your right, it is one of those voices you don't forget, but educational none the less.
