All I can say is, a couple of years ago, I was trying Naturally Speaking (was it Dragonware?), on my XP computer but in the few hours I spent trying to get it to type what I was saying, it seemed pretty clear that I'd probably be better off typing, because it would take longer to correct the errors of that speech recognition system than to just type the stuff. But I guess they keep making improvements. I may try it again, but I am resisting going to Windows 7, will stick with Win XP because of Micro$oft's invasive policies that offend my sense of privacy.
