High Eric,
thank you for that information. I was trying to get a speech recognition
system running for some time.
I have been using the IBM-line of speech recognition ViaVoice/Nuance under
Win98 with some success. Now, I planned to use it in VirtualBox.
ooh, that is old stuff.  you should look for a sale on DNS 13 this 
month.  nuance should have preferred on sale for 100$ instead of 200$.  
pick yourself up an logitech h800 headset form staples and off you go.
-Do you have experience with ViaVoice, are there reasons to prefer
NaturalSpeaking?
via voice was the package of choice for court stenographers because it 
could be tuned but overall NaturallySpeaking was a better choice.  look 
up natlink/vocola for a python based extension environment to nat-speak.
-Why did you choose KVM over VirtualBox?
because VBox has really lousy audio handling.  could not get a clear 
stream of audio to nat-speak so recognition was terrible. hoping I can 
get/find a solution for kvm and usb audio.
