Does anyone have it. And how do you like it if you do have it.

I haven't heard of this program. What is it.

I have heard of dragons blood. A surfies ointment for cuts and braises on corals etc.

I've used Dragon years ago.

It actually was difficult to use and limited.

I'm sure by now it has gone through massive changes and become much easier to use.

I've used it. Back in 99/2000 (don't recall exactly which year I got it) it worked ok but took several times to get it to "know" my voice correctly.  You'd say what you want typed and it would type it out then you correct the mistakes it picked up and say it again and keep on correcting it until it got to know your own speech patterns.  Once you got that down it was pretty nice to use.

I'm actually wanting to get a newer version to go with newer computer and set it up again. But money holds me back for now.

Thanks guys for your input I really appreciate your input.I actually just bought the program it recognizes very well. It’s going to take a while to get used to the program it is quite comprehensive.

It’s a program that recognizes your voice as you dictate to it. It’s for people who have poor typing skills or would rather dictate than type.

This would come in handy for those who are limited in motion, paralyzed, have wrist or neck handicaps. They can speak just not type. I have seen it advertised and think it s great! What a cool invention.

I use it now and it beats the competition. I have the PC version and the iOS version. Of course, the PC version is leaps and bounds ahead of the mobile version though.

Windows 7 & 8 have a built in version of their own voice recognition/dictation- maybe not basic versions though since I don't play with them. Might be an additional download for windows esp Win 8. Haven't used it in years -Windows Millennium days.   You do have to enable this feature.

Thanks for the information.But I already tried the Windows version it worked for a while, for some reason it stopped working and I couldn't get it to recognize my voice anymore for some reason. That's why I bought Dragon naturally speaking. Works really well and I'm very happy with it.

I love it when I buy something and then it works the way it is supposed to work. Happy for you.
