It's not perfect - nothing is - but if you work at it, you*can* train it
to probably 98% accuracy.
They*do* have an SDK, from which you could*possibly* write something
native for Linux - but it'd need to be developed on Windoze and ported,
because everything native they have is designed for it.

I've used native (I installed Win 7 to try it) and under VirtualBox.
Both have the same performance.
(a) dragon is the best
(b) dragon is terrid
I did the 1/2 hour Alice down the Rabbit Hole training Then Said
"The sky is blue the sea turquoise" Dragon translated as "Blue men stand
in a tall sea" (The translation is para phrased, it was unadulterated
rubbish with occasional words recognised)
VirtualBox is very suitable for this sort of fiddling. Dragon was hard
to get running, I would not even consider wine.
(Many hours to their help desk until a really savy engineer helping out
on help desk solved and walked me through the install)
CrossOver give it a bronze.
My samsung android (but that is huge infra structure) gets 95% correct
so I guess my slurred uninteligble speech *can* be done.
My mate loves dragon, I guess he has learned how-to-talk to dragon!
