Text to Audio Software?

Is there any software where I can type out text, and then its read outloud by a program?

The catch is can I turn it into mp3 format?

So I want an mp3 of text that I typed out.

Anyone got anything or any ideas?

I know with Mac OS X they have an awesome text-to-voice application for disabled users and accessibility options, my friends and I use it to say hilarious stuff all the time. Then I would just use my built-in iSight camera and microphone to record the text I want to make an MP3 of, then tell QuickTime to export it as an MP3.

Done.

As for XP, who knows...

There are, but they all sound crap.mattyftm

That's what makes it so awesome.
