Voice Recognition These are common questions that have been asked since the movie '2001: A Space Odyssey' was released. While the technology has certainly improved dramatically, it's still not like it is portrayed in the movies. Voice recognition can be used for voice command or dictation, but the key issue is whether you are willing to devote the time it take to train your system and more importantly, yourself to make it an effective tool. If you have a newer version of Microsoft Word or Office XP, you already have 'Speech Recognition' built-in, so give it a try!
