That is the one I was looking for at the Raspberry
VI list site, that worked on older PIs.

There was one where speakup got working.
I can't find it right now though.
Wonder what happened with it?

Where is the talking image gotten from?
That is if there is a special one made.

I am sure one can use the talking image built for this.

Hi,
Since mine are all older ones, I just ordered the model 4 with 4GB.
Anyway, you will download an image, and use a utility to burn the image to a
micro SD card.
You will provide the power and although you may be able to just plug in a
keyboard and a speaker and press super S to start Orca, you may need to plug
it into the router or if you don't have a router, you can plug it into the
Ethernet port on a computer and SSH into it to set it up.
The latter is how I have always done it due to the low RAM on the Raspberry
PI units I have had.
Depending on the Raspberry PI image you get, or perhaps on all of them, when
you SSH into it and log in, you can run a utility called raspisetup
This will configure the install and allow you to expand the image to use the
entire card.

I am sorry, I haven't any experiences with that. So, when I buy
Raspberry Pi, what can I do to have speech. What devices do I neead
(headphones, screen, speakers, etc)?
Thanks.
Best regards
Vojta.

Hi Vojtech,
What about it do you think you cannot do alone?
I do everything non-visually and I have had lots of these, Banana PI,
Raspberry PI, Orange PI, and a Pine64.
No need for any sighted assistance with this stuff.

Hello,
yes, my friend from Czech Republic told me about Raspberry Pi, but he
warned me, I alone without seeing person cannot option it alone. And I
don't know where can I buy it in the czech Republic, who can help me
with optioning and what is Raspberry Pi. I know, it is like Lego
(smile). I can build it, but I am afraid I can break it.
If you want, write me privatelly, but I believe, Raspberry Pi interests
other people and Pinebooks of course too. so it's your choice how do you
write me.
Thanks.
Best regards
Vojta.

The Raspberry Pi 4 is good, and you can get it with 2GB, 4GB or 8GB of
RAM. Those are probably the easiest to find and the least expensive as
well. The OS is normally put onto a MicroSD, but there is also a way
to make it boot from USB, which can sometimes be faster, depending on
the boot device.
I have an older Pinebook, and they definitely at that time could have
used improvement. I think the newer versions may have made those
improvements, but I'm not sure, as I didn't try one yet. There is
supposed to be a Pinebook Pro, which is supposed to offer a much
better experience. The main advantage to these is that they are laptop
computers complete with the keyboard and the screen. There are no
separate parts, no cables, etc.
As for plugin devices, the Odroid N2 is certainly one of the best.
This is what I'm using to write this message. It is a little larger
than a Raspberry Pi, and it only ships with either 2GB or 4GB of RAM.
But it has a 6-core processor, 4 large and 2 small, and the OS runs
from an eMMC chip, which is closer to the size of 4 MicroSD's, 2
side-by-side with two more stacked on top of them. The speed advantage
is significant, though the price is also noticeably higher. The
biggest advantage is that although all of these machines are passively
cooled, the N2 doesn't even seem to get warm to the touch, no matter
how much load I put on it.
These are some of the best small and fairly cool fanless Linux devices
I know and/or have used. Hope this helps.
