For many years, the speech recognition world for PCs and Macs was split between Dragon Naturally Speaking for Windows and MacSpeech for OS X. That changed earlier this year when Nuance, the maker of Dragon, bought its Mac rival. Both companies continued to produce their programs that allow spoken words to be turned into computer text until recently, when the combo released their first joint effort for the Apple market, Dragon Dictate for the Mac. I have plenty of savvy with Naturally Speaking, and I can say that the Mac software can hold its own with its PC cousin.
