So a long time ago (back in the 90s) I came across a second hand desktop PC that I now can't seem to find anywhere on the internet. I was thinking the manufacturer was Wang but my memory may not be 100% correct on that. I want to say it was probably either a 286 or 386. Either way, the one thing that made it stand out (and I still haven't come across anything like it since) was that the BIOS would speak errors through the PC speaker. Specifically I remember when the keyboard wasn't plugged in properly, a digitized female voice would say "check your keyboard connection". It may have spoken other errors too, but that is the only one I distinctly remember.
I thought I'd try here in case anyone else ever came across the same machine or perhaps same line of machines, I have no idea if this was a common feature across multiple models or what.
