Some of the early demonstration videos of Vista’s voice commands have been astounding, making it look like there could soon be a fast and intuitive alternative to the keyboard. Here’s a Vista voice commands video that’s a bit underwhelming to say the least. Anyone who has ever sat in front of a dumb and unresponsive Mac repeating the phrase, “Computer, tell me a joke” can surely sympathize.
But still, this guy clearly needs to get a better grasp of voice commands before uploading a video like this. I typed this entirely in Vista using voice commands and it worked fine for me. enter delete enter caps lock delete caps lock
Not sure this looks all that helpful. And the guy using it sure seemed to be getting frustrated with it. But it is nice to see that things that people have actually wanted for sometime are at least being worked on. And they are trying to be added to Vista.
Say something incredibly witty, insightful, or l33t
