Voice recognition

A little off topic but has any of you used voice recognition?

I would like some software for my portable and table computer. I run a small translation office but the translators I have come in touch with locally are not aware of the technology.

        I have used Dragon Naturally Speaking with mixed results, once you get it going is ok, but the installation process was a nightmare, it also slows down your computer unless you have tons of RAM. I've heard the latest version is a huge improvement, but haven't had the chance to use it.

          I got an answer from a tribe friend who is a sociology professor and has used it for a full year without trouble. I am definitely getting the latest edition.
          I have a 512 Ram Pentium 4 Dell purchased last year.

          I am worried about the portable, but Dell sells an edition of Dragon with it.

          I can translate. I just can't type quickly enough for my output.

          Has anyone tried Skype?
