I was talking to a friend of mine today and he was extremely impressed with Mac OS X it was fast it looked nice but the best thing about it was *gasp* voice commands. He watch his aunty tell the computer what to do.
Does windows have this kind of thing. I'm just interested because i had a 3rd party app that could do this on an old performer (Mac OS 7) in 1996!!!
Has windows caught on yet?
Calum:
HA!
ravuya:
Heh, that's a good one.
Apple speech recognition has gotten really good in the past few years, the OS X version just kicks the shit out of the one that shipped with 7.5 (I played with it for awhile, but the software was such a kludge...)
Refalm:
Windows XP has a f**ked up support for speech regocnitian and only VB or C++ programmers or people with a lot of money can somehow manage speech recognitian on Windows XP.

I used it for a while with my web browsers.
"Go back, go forward, go home, reload." Omniweb even allowed complete surfing by saying "show link labels" and all the links on a page would be labeled with numbers and you could just say "open link 3."
Very cool, but I don't use it anymore.
It's a great tool for impressing someone with OSX though.
edit. can't fucking spel today.
