Voice recognition: sound cards.

I've been thinking about buying a computer that would be optimized for voice recognition technology. I have a new 233 Dell at work, and find Dragon Software to be somewhat slow, and prone to too many errors. My associate has a 300 MHZ Compaq and gets for better voice recognition peRformance. I wondered why until I found the following site.

synapseadaptive.com (Click on "getting best performance.")

Joel states that in his opinion, more important than processor speed, is the quality of the sound card input. Many of the expensive sound cards have excellent output (for games, cd playing) but their input is inferior.

Any other suggestions to optimize a pc for voice recognition?

Thanks in advance-- John
