<p class="MsoNormal">A friend has had a stroke and can now only type with one hand. Are any of you familiar with voice-activated software for dictating to a computer? I use what came with my iPhone and iPad and it works pretty well so long as you don’t have
a Scottish accent. But for a desktop or laptop, I don’t know what software to recommend. Thanks for any info you can offer.<o:p></o:p></p>
