My wife wants to use speech recognition for work, hopefully to
save big bucks on dictation transcription. The best software
is reputedly Dragon Naturally Speaking, a Windoze app. She will
be using the $$$$ professional version, but we decided to try
it out with the cheap ($80 at frys before $40 rebate) standard
version. Dragon runs adequately in Windows 2000 under VMWare on
my 2GB/2GHz Linux laptop, though I am told it will perform better
with a "real time" kernel, compiled to maximize audio performance.
But Dragon isn't fully trained yet. While she was watching me
demonstrate, I spoke:
"My wife is the most beautiful woman in the
world and I love her a whole lot"
Dragon interpreted this as:
"My wife is the most beautiful woman in the
world and I love her all holes locked"
I also love my wife's sense of humor!
