Windows Vista's speech recognition is a way to be lazy..

What can you say?

(I typed this sentence)
I am talking in my microphone right now.
But it still has a bunch of quirks that needs to be fixed.
Why don't you guys download this operating system and try to write a perfect sentence with it. I bet you guys $5.00 you will not be able to complete the task without errors. I had to talk like a robot to make it say what I want properly.

This is how it interprets the sentence above.

Why don't you guys down this operating system and try to write a perfect sentence with it. I bet you guys at $5.00 you will not be able to complete the task without errors. I had to talk bought to make it say what I sent a ball properly.

Grr... Oh well... hope it does better in the retail release.

voice recognition has a lot to do with enunciation, quality of microphone, etc. YMMV?

OP, you need to pay yourself $5.00. Your first sentence has no quirks. In fact, the second sentence has no errors either because Vista convienently fixed a grammatical mistake for you

Sounds like voice recognition from 8-10 years ago. You need to train yourself how to talk.

$10 in fact. First two sentences are fine (well, as he wanted them) and as you said, it fixed a grammatical error for him.
