Ladies and gents, all aboard, the review train is coming. It was a great morning today down at the Speech Tech offices. A huge package arrived from Nuance just stuffed to the brim with copies of NaturallySpeaking 10.
You see, my brother Adam B. and I have been angling to get some review copies for a couple of days so that we could give you fine folks an unbiased and unvarnished look at it, and Nuance has delivered. Unfortunately, we’re probably not going to be able to get cracking on it until the week after next since I’m going to be down San Diego-ways for Voice Search, but keep those eyes peeled for a full spread.
Everyone in the office will be taking a look, charting their experiences with clipboard and air of scientific impartiality. Our editors have even started taking to wearing lab coats around the office (though admittedly that’s unrelated and has more to do with our having turned the conference room into a meat locker). In any case, the results will be tallied, tabulated, and delivered to you in full. Look for a possibly multi-part, multi-post spread in the coming days.
In the meanwhile, if you have any questions or any specific things you want us to look for, try out, or focus on, leave us a comment!
DNS v10 refused to install: “your processor is not adequate”. (2GHz, 1.1G memory, XP Home). Box doesnt give specs nor indicate you need a DVD drive to load it.
I got no response from Nuance. They are eager for me to start paying $19.95 a call to talk to them. They bought up Scansoft I believe and have abominable customer relations. Even to find a support portal is a challenge.
Do you think v9 is more tolerant?
