How many of you use the Speech Recognition built into the iMac?
And of those who do use it, do you use the built in mic or do you use a 3rd party microphone?
Which mic is best?
 
Its pretty hit or miss with the built in mic. Im not sure about others, but it almost never understands me. I speak clearly with a non regional dialect. You almost have to say it as if you're a robot. Its more than likely a software issue, other than mic. Rosetta Stone understands me perfectly well. I really hope they improve on this with the next update.
