After seeing the system requirements for Dragon NaturallySpeaking 13 premium edition, I decided to buy it. The version I'm currently running works very well, but it doesn't support some of the text codes that I use frequently on AtomicBobs and other sites. The new version does. I'm also looking forward to not having to hold a microphone in front of my mouth while I'm speaking, though it remains to be seen how well my old laptop's built-in microphone actually works with the product.

This is actually the 1st time I've used Dragon since moving to New England. I didn't know where my headset was and wasn't motivated until tonight to look for it. Now that I'm using Dragon again, I'm wondering what took me so long. This is really nice! Being able to narrate instead of having to type everything grows on you.

If any of you are interested, Amazon is running a special right now on Dragon Naturally Speaking 13 PREMIUM EDITION. $74. Retail is $199.

I'd buy it, but I'm using a 5 year old Windows 8 laptop that might not be compatible. I've also got Dragon Home Edition 11 on it already...

I like Dragon. This version, obviously, is even better. One of the big benefits is that you no longer need to use a headset. It's been designed to work well with laptop microphones. IMO, that's huge. I've always found having to hook up and use a headset to be one of program's only drawbacks.

The special MIGHT only be for Amazon Prime members, I don't know. But here's the link:
