Speech recognition in vista

Has anyone ever given this a go? Its amazing!!! You just say " open firefox" and it works. I only realised that I had it yesterday. Give it a go!

Cool I might give it a try.

Really?!?! I never knew it had that.

Yeah, I use it regularly, but it's overall recognition sucks.

I say "Open Firefox", that works fine. "Open Word Pad" that does fine. But for some reason I can't use the dictation properties of it. I could sit there in word pad and say "I am talking to my computer" and it doesn't show up! It doesn't recognize the difference from when you are giving it a command or dictating something

If you run through the tutorial, it trains up the PC. Takes ages but works well after it

i tried it, but got frustrated with it's poor recognition of what i was saying. it kept getting stuff wrong, so i just gave up on it.
