I am using Dragon preferred also. However, at this time, I am less than thrilled.
I have trained straight in both at home and at the office multiple times. Yet I still get errors frequently. Often these errors occur, on terms that I have previously trained Dragon on. There are times the program works flawlessly, and times it doesn't seem to realize him speaking English. At times like that, it's just not worth using the program.
I now include a disclaimer at the end of all of my notes were accused Dragon, as is not as reliable as I would like, I don't always catch the errors.
It will definitely try turning on Dragon several minutes before amazing charts. Perhaps that's part of the problem, as it tend to turn on everything at one time.
