Dragon Express appears to be suitable, but a number have said last year the program works in 10.7 but not 10.8 even though it is listed at the app store as 10.7 or later. Any experience? The program costs $50.

I gather your voice words are transmitted to Apple and come back as digital text - with a time lag. Apple certainly doesn't give you any info on this - letting you figure it out for yourself.

Thanks for the reply Bill. I was thinking along the same lines. I just hope
