Back to the grindstone

Well, we're back.
Everything I love and hate in one tidy package. Fortunately the former continues to outweigh the latter.

Hands hurt. Can't buy Dragon until next week. Here's hoping it lives up to the reviews.

loved my version back in the late 90's
Its how I was able to get work done when my shoulder was so bad.

Friend has low fine motor skills and he swears by it.

Hope it works as well for you!

have you tried academic superstore for Dragon? They have an educational version, available for faculty, for only $79

I've been really tempted to pick it up, too- the recorder I got for classes is supposed to be compatible with it...

A friend recommended Dragon just last week.
