How do you like it? I've been very interested (dictation in Mavericks leaves a lot to be desired) but the reviews on Amazon seem to savage it pretty good as buggy and not up to the standards of the Windows version.
I believe the Windows version is better. Integrates with Python so it's easier to customize, and I think it's easier to define your own "words". e.g. "Slap" could mean "new line". I got it on sale for $99. Now I've gotta get a good microphone.
Thanks. I'm glad to see the David Pogue review, but it looks like it's not considered compatible with Yosemite and crashes for a lot of people. I guess I'll wait to see if they release an update later this fall.

David Pogue's review: https://www.yahoo.com/tech/hello-computer-speak-your-text-wi...
And the fact that John Siracusa writes articles like these with it, convinced me that I could make it useful with a little effort.
