I ordered my care about the same time and while the chair is in, it has been for the better part of two months, I am still waiting on Magitek to send their equipment. I am going to be calling tomorrow to inquire about the status. On 8/3/08, David O'Connell <[EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) > wrote: Now for the 'NEW' chair story. I ordered one on 3/3/8 and received it on 7/21/8. I had very little input and guess what .... it DOESN'T work for me. I had to modify the footrest and the seat just to get going. Now a day at the van place to get the EZLOCK set up, then maybe I'll be ready. This is never easy. I pay about 500$ for Pride Jets on eBay and they work well. My part of this one was $1,100 and I have to modify it. Just doesn't make sense to me.

I was in the business for 25 years and know the trip can be long and painful. I have been a DOS/Windows PC programmer for most of those 25 years and never even considered a MAC. They were just 'toys.' Now I'm thinking the iMack is looking pretty good and with the very low probability of having a virus problem, and the amazing speed from low memory requirements is starting to turn my head. I'm thinking I might just have to try one next time - probably before Christmas.

We still think, and read (but moreso BELIEVE after hubby seeing 30+ yrs of any OS released) that the next Windows OS still will not be released until late January of 2010. You might want to consider getting a new system more sooner rather than later anyway, Quadius, or you will be waiting a long time. Best to ya all!

Windows 7 is going to be AWHILE in coming. Even at this EXTREEMLY early date, Microsoft is saying that Windows 7 won't be ready until (AT THE EARLIEST) after late January 2010. I am not sure where you got your information, but even based upon Microsoft's history with delays of OS releases, the end of this year is ludricrous. There isn't even anything in Beta testing right now, let alone Windows 7, Mohave, or whatever. Microsoft is too busy right now trying to bolster Vista's image to worry about an entirely new OS. You'll see. :-) Lori Michaelson Age - 44 C4/5 complete quad, 28 years post Tucson, AZ From: Danny Espinoza <[EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) > Date: Jul 31, 2008 4:55 PM Subject: RE: [QUAD-L] Windows Vista voice program To: Quadius <[EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) >, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[email protected]) Vista's speech recognition is ok but nowhere near as good as Dragon naturally speaking. I use Dragon naturally speaking 9b pro on a vista machine. I would recommend holding off on buying a new machine because Vista is being replaced at the end of the year by Microsoft's new operating system Windows 7. Hope this helps!

For those of you who have switched from Dragon NaturallySpeaking to the Vista program, does the program offer the ability to move the mouse vocally? Is it almost as efficient as Dragon NaturallySpeaking? I would love to hear your input. I am also considering switching over to a Macintosh. I have heard that Dragon NaturallySpeaking now has software for the Macs, but I have found very little online about this product. I don't know how much it cost or whether it is as good as the normal version. I think it would be nice to go over to a system which is much more stable. It would be a big change for me, but what the heck.
