While I can't go back to writing computer code using speech recognition without having some sort of human/computer breakdown, I have found it immensely helpful, especially with my finger, hand, and wrist pain that typically sets in as soon as I start typing. Lately I've put a little wedge under the front of my keyboard (an ergonomically split one with raised keys and a touchpad) that has allowed me a little more typing time. I still don't have the upper arm or even forearm strength to allow much more without negative repercussions to my poor wrist tendons, but just being able to type once in awhile really helps speed up the process!

I'm glad to see that plenty of you here use the software as well, as it really does take a major strain off the upper body!
