Becky, THe built in speech recognition on the Macintosh does not recognize words, it recognises phrases. So you could for example hold down the escape key and say "switch to system preferences" You would then hear a click and System Preferences would be launched. If you want dictation, then you would need to buy Dragon for the Macintosh. I know that jsay has optimized Dragon for Windows, but I don't know if that was just making key commands or what.
