Re: voice recognition software

Tony,
My desktop pc came with voice recognition software.  I tried to set it
up and never got it to work.  This one involved SEVERAL levels of
reading endless lists into the computer.  If the software failed to
"hear" you at a level you had to start all over.  You also have to say
each punctuation mark, paragragh, etc.  I don't think it is worth it.

That was about two years ago.  Maybe it is better now.  I am a two
finger typist...but I'm pretty fast!

> Just wondering if anyone has experience with the use of
voice-recognition software to simplify the typing of stories. As a
four-finger typist for too long, I figure there must be a way to speed
things up. Does anyone use it, and is it any good? I use a Macintosh
computer. If anyone has any good advice I'd love to hear it. My
