Default Do you receive the NMSS Magazine - Momentum?

https://mymsmyway.com/home.html

There is an article in the Summer 2008 issue about Life, Wired with some tips about "technability." I found it very interesting. Of course, for us MAC/Apple users its not very helpful because it is slanted toward the PC community. The reason for that is one of the sponsors is Microsoft.

However, it does give tips on Screen Magnification, Screen Reading, Keyboard aids, and Voice Recognition software. There are also a lot of other tips as well, but they talk about the Dragon NaturallySpeaking software.

The articles goes on to say that Vista offers it's own slightly scaled down version of voice-recognition software. Are any of you aware of this? Tried it?

It's an interesting article.

Thanks Cheryl
I did read the article, and it was suggested to me years ago, to try the dragon software. Voc Rehab had sent a specialist to my house. I'm wishing I would have followed up with that.
