In case you hadn't noticed or weren't aware of it, Vocaloid is a program
that takes a library of sounds made by a person and lets you string them
together arbitrarily to create a synthetic version of that person. It's
a ways off from sounding truly accurate, but it's a step up from MS Sam.

Whole load of youtube videos with it.
