It has been my experience that Dragon is really the only option. Astoundingly, it's been that way for the last 5-10 years. You'd think some manufacturer would come into this market to compete with Dragon Naturally Speaking.
I suppose it depends what you want to do with it. I've heard good things about Kurzweil products for special education. But then... you think *Dragon is expensive*! Well.. take a look at Kurzweil. <Sly grin> That said, I haven't looked at any of this software systematically in the last 2-3 years. So maybe the landscape has radically changed since I last looked.
