 Works amazingly well November 22, 2006

I never expected this product to work this well. to demonstrate how well it works,I will dictate this review into the box, and make no corrections. Welder products required that you separate the words with pauses in between. This one does not. In fact, it works better if you dictate an entire sentence continuously, with no pauses. I believe the reason this works better is that it allows the program to analyze the syntax and semantics of what you are saying, and thus improve the quality of the results.
As an engineer who worked briefly in the 60s on speech recognition, I am really impressed.

I have been using Dragon Naturally Speaking to write articles, reviews, webpages and blogs for about a week now. This will be the first time that I've actually published anything using the program because I wanted the first item that I published to be this review.
If you do any extensive amount of writing, I highly recommend this program to you. It simply works. Right out of the box. Without any special training of the software to recognize my voice. (Of course, training the program will improve its performance.) This program alone makes it worth my while to have a Windows partition on my Mac Intel, and I plan to use it frequently. I have tried Mac-specific dictation programs and have generally been dissatisfied with them. Dragon Naturally Speaking simply blows me away.
If you get this program be sure to take the tutorials. They are easy to understand, quick to complete and make the program easy to use. The program itself may not need particular special training but the user does need a little.
Also, please note that most people need a little time to become used to dictation. It is really quite different from simply speaking to another person, and becoming good at dictation is an art. It has been a while since I have done extensive dictation and I'm finding that I have to relearn the process in order to be effective. And using a dictation program is different from using tape or digital recorders. Be patient. After you get the hang of it, you will be able to speed right along. And remember, although using dictation is much faster and more efficient than typing, you still have to proof-read your work.
(p.s. In some versions, you can record to a digital recorder and simply play back to the computer later. So you can dictate anywhere, any time!)

The product works as advestized and I enjoy using it. Would be nice if it had a cheat sheet on commands.

This is a great product for those that need to type or write but are not able to. My son has Tourette Syndrome and is hindered from writing with all of his tics. My wife and I were writing all of his assignments for school and now he is able to dictate directly to the computer what he wants to say and also he can correct any errors he may make. This product is working well for us on Word and e-mail. If you have trouble writing or typing or just hate the task, then this is a real help and worth every penny!

I'm a disabled Vet & my sister is a Quad, BOTH of us have trouble keying a PC. This approach, which was invented by Dr. Kurzwell & refined by Nuance, is very, very servicible & should help the so-called able-bodied & we Disabled speed up asks.
