Hi Brandon, Well, I decided to retrain by creating a new profile. I haven't gotten beyond the Microphone setup screen yet, not sure why. I've read the text more than three times, and I have no confirmation that I can move on to the Voice Training step. I agree with you; I remember Dragon Dictate for the PC, and it was nowhere as comprehensive as Naturally Speaking is. I hope they catch up on the Mac side. I'll be dictating e-mails as well, and will use a braille display and VoiceOver.
