Hi Dana.
I got my new laptop, is an HP pavilion 2000 -- it comes with Vista, and the new speech recognition program. I don't think I'm going to have any problem with the speech recognition program. I am using Dragon down on the desktop, and responding to you that way, because I don't have Microsoft Outlook installed on the laptop yet. However, I have played with the laptop for a couple of hours, and it is even easier to use than Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9.1. It is quicker than Dragon NaturallySpeaking, and so far I have not been able to find a way to move the mouse without using MouseGrid. Get your laptop back, and try speech recognition. It also has an on-screen keyboard that can be minimized so you don't have to see it, but that you can utilize to spell at any time by just saying "press a" etc.. I really like that. I'll let you know, as I find more out about this program. Right now, I have two microphone set up, one for the desktop, and one for the laptop. The biggest problem I have had with the laptop so far is that it is supersensitive and wakes up very easily. So I am trying to problem--solve that.

Is it is 64 bit and what brand? Mine is a Hewlett-Packard with 1 MB and it will need another and my brother said Dragon said they could not promise Vista would work with Dragon 9. That is what his computer guy for his business told him they said. I guess my brother said he could add 1 MB of RAM. I could not really find a number to call other than a number on the Nuance web site. They seem to suggest Dragon 9.5 professional version which is not out. I wish I knew how soon as my brother wants to take my bedroom computer to work on. He needs to set up the laptop to use instead. I'm glad you say it works with Dragon 9 , but I don't like to buy upgrades because it is so confusing for me to install. I always do it wrong unless my computer friend from Hallmark is available, because I always do something wrong. I need to find out what kind of Hewlett-Packard I have as my brother has it. Thank you for the information and please send me your MG, brand and if you have 64-bit. Dana
