limited resources the opportunity to
conduct their operation in a more
proficient manner.

whole new way to interact with a PC, using
speech instead of a keyboard and mouse to
help you work faster and more efficiently.
Dragon turns ideas into text at the speed of
thought so you can communicate more freely
and persuasively. Just say words and watch
them appear on the computer screen. On
average it is three times faster than typing and
with minimal or no typos. Tell your PC what to
do, and it obeys your commands!

documents, reports, spreadsheets, or

5.  The software has three primary areas of
functionality: dictation, text-to-speech and
command input. The user is able to dictate and
have speech transcribed as written text, have a
document synthesized as an audio stream, or
issue commands that are recognized as such by
the program. In addition, voice profiles can be
accessed through different computers in a
networked environment, although the audio
hardware and configuration must be identical on
both machines.
