Well, for a while Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9.0 Preferred ran faster (for me) in Wine through Notepad than it did in Windows XP. (Vista of course is slower.) The Ubuntu Hardy sound issues have put it back to just parity, but that's still pretty good. In a couple of months, I expect that people looking for only continuous speech recognition, such as court reporters, will start to prefer Linux and wine. -----Original Message----- >From: Frank <wineforum-user@xxxxxxxxxx> >Sent: Apr 4, 2008 5:38 PM >To: wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx >Subject: Re: Usefull dll overrides > > >> >> Using native DLLs is a >> crutch we want to get away from >> > > I bet in the not too distant future there will be windows apps that run better in wine than on the native platform. I think the devs are doing a great job already. When I look back at the first time I ran wine on Red Hat 5.2 and they really hoped that notepad.exe would work "out of the box" , and now I look at the AppDB and see literally hundreds of working programs I stand in awe.
