Good initiative. I agree with all the follow-up posts here at the moment, and got a couple of extra notes for you: It is also used for text-to-speech applications. Ventrilo for example uses this to make Microsoft Sally (or whatever her name is) say who connects to the server, changes channels, etc. Isn't this needed for Dynamic Drives? As for drivers. If you have downloaded drivers available for integration, you can remove them all.
