Default Speach recognition software

I am in the market for some speach recognition spftware. I have looked at downloadable material and there is more choice that I have ability to determine the best possibility. Have any of you acquired this software that you would recommend to me?

Please advise.

Are you looking at commercial software or open source (free) software? I presume you are on windows?

If you have windows vista or 7 there is pretty good speech recognition software built in,

Start menu, select:

Control Panel.
Ease of Access.
Speech Recognition.

on XP you can install it :

Dragon Naturally speaking is pretty much the standard that I have seen in disability services promotion, a bit better than the windows versions, but windows is quite good
