Ventrilo has innate delay and is proprietary.

Mumble is open source and has lowest latency of all the apps.

That may be the case, but in Ventrilo you can page someone "[][][][][][][][][]" and it will go "page from left square bracket right square bracket left square bracket right square bracket left square bracket right square bracket..." This is a major advantage

True, Mumble does have text-to-speech, but no Microsoft Sam in a roflcopter that goes soisoisoisoisoisoi

I'll never forgive Bill Gates for getting rid of Microsoft Sam. Now to take a biiig sip of coffee and look at what he's been up to since then
