Comment Re:It is not for coding (Score 1) 230

^"Voice recognition is made for secretaries, writers, housewifes and handicap persons, not for coders"? Can none of these former be coders?

I am a "handicap person" (a physically disabled person is what I assume you mean)--I can type at at best five words per minute--but I am certainly a "coder" [a professional software developer]. I do not make a lot of money, nor do I manage to work incredibly quickly (significantly slower than most able-bodied workers), but I manage (due largely to the largesse of the Australian government admittedly, but I hope that will change).

Please don't forget that large (-ish; let's be realistic!) group of people that I represent.

(Incidentally, I am quite excited at the prospect of, once appropriate voice recognition software becomes available, returning to using a Unix-like OS like Linux!)

[This comment may sound rather peeved; please note that I mean no disrespect to you personally! I understand how easy it is to forget about users like me... I did so for many years!]

Cheers, Chris
