I find it interesting that this post was posted on another message board as well and someone named connie asked you to post it.  so my guess is this is an advertisement...which is not allowed here. 

wayney38522.5160185185bah, hit the road Great catch, Wayney!  Sort of makes me mad because I was just about to tell y'all about this software I use that allows me to talk into a microphone and it types for me.  (can't type well any more with my RA, so it really helps.)  But I guess I won't, since it'll probably just look like I'm selling something, like this opportunist, wheel123.  How dense does he think we are, I wonder.Sara, is it Dragonsoft?  I use that sometimes at work.  It's expensive, but does a great job. Actually, Sara, if you approach it right and do not profit from it, that is different.  I don't see anyone having a problem with that.  Just, those people who have a first post selling something and profit from it.  I for one don't mind hearing about things you use and don't get  profit from them.  Yea Sara thats different :) you arent advertising hehe. I love to hear about stuff that people use to make things easier for them  So please feel free to share ! Ive never tried one of those programs, my hands are doing ok as far as pain right now tho, on days they are bad I try not to type much tho. :) Jealousy38522.9369097222

Sara~There's a big difference between one of our beloved friends sharing something that is helpful to them...and someone we've never heard from posting one time with special links to their products.

You can always tell when someone pops in and makes one post bragging about something....and then adds a link. That's a dead give away.

 

OK.  Since you called me beloved

It's called DragonNaturallySpeaking.  And 6xmum, it's not expensive if you get it at eBay. 

Do a search for Dragon Naturally Speaking. You'll see a huge price range, but I saw one last night for .95. It was for version 7.0. You don't need the newer 8.0 as a beginner. I don't think you would notice the difference, and the new version is way too expensive. Plus, if you get it on eBay, it's a brand new disk--not pirated. Just check the description and make sure they say so.  The thing is, for that price, you won't get the books and instructions to go with it.  But as I remember, there's a decent tutorial on the disk itself, and I'd be willing to bet you could find instructions online.  Yes, they are helpful, but not absolutely necessary. (Actually, I have an instruction book from an older version, and maybe I could Xerox it and mail it to whoever needs it.) You'll also need to buy a cheap headset at someplace like RadioShack. That'll cost you maybe . The software--my computer geek son tells me--is what is known as artificial intelligence. You actually teach it. You read paragraphs into it in the beginning, and it gets to understand your voice and your accent. The more you use it the smarter it gets, and the more accurate it gets. It's pretty neat. You need to be kind of patient though, sort of like teaching a puppy.

That sounds awesome Sara; I bet something like that would be very helpful to many of our members.
