Windows Vista Speech Recognition

The forthcoming Windows Vista OS (forthcoming, yes, indeed), is announced to support speech recognition! You know, that thing that you talk to the machine and the system recognizes your words and types the text on the screen!
Microsoft organized a demo, for this genius feature! Watch the video:





Isn't it amazing? Now, windows users will be able to get their texts into the machine 10 times slower than by typing! Wow!

Just to remind you, all Macs since 1992 can do this kind of work, perfectly, even in nin english languages. I, personally use this for years for creating my teaching documents in french!

Yes, you're right. Macs are more expensive! As all work-tools are!

That makes them twice as ridiculous. They don't even know what their previous system does!

Hello:-)
Was "via voice" only a mac product?
Was it in OS 9 the first time "speech" was introduced? This recognised the spoken words to activate commands. I don't remember whether you could use it for "typing" your words into text files...
