I would be very interested if someone has done an apples to apples comparison of the same voice recognition software with the same speaker and microphone and the same level of training on a PII vs a PIII. If what you say is true, then all the comments I have been reading that the PIII is only a minor improvement over the PII are WRONG! I have tried IBM Via Voice and found its errors to be very humorous. While its speed was acceptable with a 400 mhz PII, its level of accuracy would reduce the productivity of anyone who knows how to touch type. I know the level of accuracy has a lot to do with the amount of pattern matching the software has time to do, probably involving Fast Fourier Transforms and the like. Some of the new PIII instructions are supposed to be aimed at speeding up this sort of calculation. Of course this might also mean that in a few years we will be using Pentium 4 based cell phones instead of PCs. If that happens, I'm sure Dell will have them first :) Ken
