Hi,

I have a friend who would like to get away from Microsoft system
dependence.  The show stopper seems to be voice recognition.  She is
partially disabled and needs Naturally Speaking or equivalent.  She
uses it for live dictation as well as recording to a digital recorder
followed by transcription.

Are there any open source equivalents to NS?

If not, does anyone know of a successful use of NS under wine?

If not, might xen or some other virtualizer be the answer?  Could she
move files from one virtual machine to another?

Thanks for any insight and advice.

Don
