As a regular on both English usage groups I would ask you not to direct

Thank you.

Yes, that is precisely why I posted in this Mac NG.

It is strictly a Mac issue, because Apple supplies Boot Camp
included with their OS.

Boot Camp allows the efficient operation of Dragon
NaturallySpeaking v10.0 "medical"on a Vista Ultimate
partition.

Medical Dragon demands accurate pronunciation, because
a patients life could hang in the balance over the
mis-pronunciation of one syllable of a medical term.

Mac users here give lip service to Macs being used in
the enterprise, however when push comes to shove
it is different - - - there is little or no practical
support here for actual problems encountered.

....such as which "standard" to use for the all-important
pronunciation of medical terminology.

My 2 cents worth...
