Speech Recognition Software for a Mac Laptop

03/03/2011 10:17 AM

I have a Mac book Pro with OSX 10.5

looking for a really good Voice recognition software program... got a load of writing to do and speech software might be the way to go.

Thanks all

I have used Dragon Naturally Speaking before, and it's quite good. It looks like the software they have for the Mac is called:

MacSpeech Dictate

Give that a look.

I have not used the Mac version, I've used the one for PC. It's been quite a few years since I used it. At the time, it seemed pretty good, I would imagine in the years since they made some improvements.

The written reviews for the current product may have more weight than my input, since it's been so long since I used it.
