Hello
I am planning to start making my first robot.
I have some background on java, C, C++ and little bit visual basic.

I am wondering what is the best Boe Bot I should go for, I also use Mac Os
Does boe bot support Mac?

Last question is there any way that I could make boe bot talks or say something?

Thank you very much

    You can download the boebot manual and read up on its features.

    There is a 3rd party Stamp editor and downloader called MacBS2. I use it all the time for any Stamp programming. There's a link to it on the Basic Stamp Downloads webpage. To make the BoeBot talk, you'd have to use some kind of external speech synthesizer. The Propeller Backpack can run a vocal tract synthesizer written by Chip Gracey (see the Propeller Object Exchange) and there's a simple phoneme translator for the synthesizer written by Phil Pilgrim.
