Hi Folks, I've been "off the list" for about 1 month and am just catching some of the threads on voice recognition software so forgive me if I'm repeating previous information. I'm considering getting Dragon Naturally Speaking due to its good reviews as a package that allows normal speed of dictation; not, a mandatory pause after each word, as is typical of other software. The hardware demands are heavy (133 Mhz Pentium, 32 Mbytes RAM) but it sounds as if there may be a payoff. Typing is getting hard for me with arm and shoulder cramps so I believe this may prolong my ability to work. If anyone has experience or comments about this software I'd appreciate your thoughts. Best Wishes for Us All, Gray (50/3)
