Speech Recognition

(moved from Talk:Features new to Windows Vista)

"Windows Vista is the first Windows operating system to include fully integrated support for speech recognition. Under Windows 2000 and XP, Speech Recognition was installed with Office 2003."

What I didn't see was the inclusion of speech recognition in the Tablet PC version of XP. XP Tablet Edition also came with speech recognition installed by default - I played around with it plenty on my Tablet PC. Because the page is locked, I currently can't edit it, but I suggest the following change be made:

"Windows Vista is the first Windows operating system to include fully integrated support for speech recognition. Under Windows 2000 and XP, Speech Recognition was installed with Office 2003, or was included in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition."

Too Long

Logical breaks in the article as it stands are hard to define. Suggestion; Technical (eg; networking, SMB2 etc) broken from User (Speech synthesis, display etc.

The level of detail in each heading is excellent. However, I agree with the too long description. I do NOT want to drop the information by summarising. Am I dreaming? Jacketed 09:38, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article length

This article is also becoming too long. I suggest splitting off the Programmability section to a new New APIs in Windows Vista or similar article. That way this article could be shortened. And we could have quite some breathing room to discuss the new APIs as well as scripting and programmability. Also then we would have three articles - one for non-technical users, one for moderately technically savvy users and the other for the hardcore geeks. --soum^talk 09:46, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
