Review by By Mark Braun

Dragon for Mac is incredibly easy to use, and quite intuitive. In fact, I am dictating this into my MacBook Pro which is running Mac OS 10.9, and it is working flawlessly. Dragon is easy to use right out of the box with a simple tutorial, or simply open a document or an application and go to work.

Is a list of commands built in, and with the exception of knowing how to spell my last name, it’s flew through the first thing I was writing 99% right. That 1% was the spelling of my last name, by the way. I’ll figure out how to program that shortly, but interestingly, I opened a Ted.com speech and began to record it. This is new territory! Imagine being able to capture a television news program, or something that you need to keep as text. Well, here I am doing just that.

The commands are easy to learn, and the tutorial takes just a couple of minutes, even for a goof like me. I’m impressed. Dragon can be used to open an application, open document, and speak all manner of commands.

Dragon has already surpassed what I expected to do for me. This is just freaking amazing! Oh, by the way; one caveat. Make sure that you adjust the volume so that it understands your commands and words clearly or else you may find odd things flying through there. Outside of that, have a blast! Dragon is worth every penny.
