“IBM’s (NYSE: IBM) ViaVoice Millennium Edition 1.0 for Macintosh
was named “Best New Product” for the Mac Operating System (OS) by
the 5th annual Apple Design Awards. “

“ViaVoice for Mac has also been chosen by the New York Times as
one of the Most Wanted top 10 titles for business software in
2000.”

“With more than 30 years in research and development, 150
patents and 250 researchers, IBM is a leader in speech recognition
technology. With more than 10 million users, IBM is the only
company to offer its speech recognition technology on all of the
most popular desktop operating platforms — Windows, Linux and
Macintosh.
Using voice as an interface will dramatically
improve the way people interact with computers and drive the
evolution of transparent computing — making the human-to-machine
interaction easier and more natural.”
