August,

Way back in the 1990's I helped a fellow I worked with install
some "Speaking" software on his Win95 computer.

After "Training" the software to his voice, He started Speaking a email
he was sending to me.

It was a disaster what appeared on the screen as he spoke.

I told him to go ahead and send the email to me so I could have a copy
of it.

That fellow certainly didn't get his moneys worth.

I hope the more expensive versions of that Dragon software does better
than what I saw happen at his house that day.

From my experience that day, I wouldn't reccommend Tom trying it,
it might get Him too frustrated, where He couldn't even type plain text
anymore to us.
