And I have sadly watched Nuance’s growing frustration with Apple that finally led them to stop supporting the OSX version of Dragon last year. I have heard this story again and again from developers who are trying to work with active. He had two lawyers in the room and was very limited to what he could say, I assume it was because of fear of being sued by Apple. Not long before they stopped developing their Apple product a senior developer from Nuance contacted me to speak about their growing frustration with Apple. It became harder and harder for them to develop on the Apple platform.
In the last couple of years however, Dragon seemed to falter. It was the first ever usable speech recognition engine for Macintosh and a very exciting day for those Who had struggled through the days of Philips dictate and IBM ViaVoice! Since then Dragon has slowly but surely improved, with better accuracy and better stability with every release.
Ten years ago Dragon finally arrived on the Apple Macintosh platform. (Dragon have closed down all their technical support, including their old forums.) Read on for details. I am starting an FAQ about dragon for users who would like to keep their current version of Dragon going for as long as they can.
