Hands Free Computer Operation for Quadriplegics?

Posted by Cliff on from the look-ma! dept.

Anonymous Coward asks: "Dragon Natural Speaking dropped hands free computer operation support back in version 3. My quadriplegic friend recently upgraded his computer and it came with Windows XP. His old Dragon Natural Speaking will not work on Windows XP. Does anyone know of any complete voice activated computer control for Windows XP or Linux?"

    My quadriplegic friend recently upgraded his computer and it came with Windows XP.

    How the fuck do you upgrade your computer if you don't have any hands or feet? That's gotta be one cool act!

    Uh.. what?

    Though your point is quite valid, I don't understand why you are saying "quite the contrary" to me. What did I say that triggered that?
