RE: using dragon naturally speaking with eloquence

[Krajczar Tech Center, Damon Fibraio]

This past weekend, I had lots of training on nautrally speaking. Here's
what I do know. You would do well to download the scripts for naturally
speaking version 3. You need to have a high powered system, at least a
pentium 2 with 128 mb ram optimally. I would not advise using eloquence
since it drags the system down and sometimes causes conflicts. I am curious
to know how you got through the training, since we have discovered that
sighted assistance is needed to do it, even if you have a braille copy
handy. If anybody is interested, I can summarize our findings with nat
speaking and dragon dictate, even if you run them concurrently.
