"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Im willing to bet they didnt even bother to configure it, or someone else did/did it poorly.  But it makes for good video indeed.

That's pretty amazing!

I agree.  An amazing failure.  I'm sticking with XP's voice recog software.

This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address occurred during the same week.  This is an ironic juxtaposition of events--one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, while the other involves a groundhog.

Re: Vista Speech "Wreck"ognition
it doesn't seem to handle capital letters very well, but other than that it's realy not that bad.

It would of been a hell of a lot easier if it wasn't code.

Yes, because why would anyone ever want speech recognition for doing work?  Why, speech recognition is only ever intended to be used when talking to insane supercomputers on missions to Jupiter....

Re: Vista Speech "Wreck"ognition
Whilst there are obvious advantages from the accessibility point of view, I have never encountered a speech recognition system that was faster than just bloody typing ;)

Re: Vista Speech "Wreck"ognition
I've never bothered with voice recognition because I know that anything from me would start out as unintelligible garbage interspersed with deletes and backspaces before rapidly turning into a obscene and vitriolic attack on Microsoft.


So much like any other comments from me then. :p

Re: Vista Speech "Wreck"ognition
The Speech package in XP sucks horribly to the new Speech package in Vista.  I tried dictating a paper I was going to write in XP and ended up wasting more time, trying to make it recognize my speech and such.  In Vista, when you actually DO the tutorial, it's worlds apart from XP's engine, meaning that it WORKS.

So basically, it's up to the level DragonSpeak and IBM's ViaVoice were about 10 years ago? Nice. :doubt:
