Voice Recognition Software/Hardware

[Astray]

I'm looking to find some top of the line programs and hardware to create a almost fully voice controlled computer...

This is a project I want to start on to help me learn alot mroe about programming and such.

Can anyone possibly help me find some of this type of programs and hardware, and may happen to know the cost of such items?

Thanks in advance.
