I Wonder What Else Is In It?
I check out Pogue's Posts at NYTimes.com on semi-regular basis, today being such a day. There was a piece that defended Windows Speech Recognition over Dragon Naturally Speaking.
I had no idea Vista had a voice recognition program. I tried Dragon years back and found it clunky. I wonder if the Vista program is worth the effort. Any thoughts?

OMG! Yes, if anyone has some real working experience with the Microsoft/Vista product, please, please, please let me know. I work with some pretty frustrated and academically challenged kids who would benefit tremendously from this kind of tool.
Thanks!
I tried playing with it, but my microphone setup isn't good enough. I think that ideally you would have one of those customer service phone headset type microphones.
I did use a Dragon product (NaturallySpeaking) a few years ago and found it to be stilting, as it made more errors than I would have done typing.
