http://review.zdnet.com/Dragon_NaturallySpeaking_Preferred_9 /4505-3528_16-31988682.html?subj=fdba&part=rss&tag=MR_Software Dragon 9 runs only on Windows XP or 2000 SP4 or higher, so Mac users are out of luck, and it requires 512MB of RAM and 1GB of free hard drive space. (Attempting to run Dragon with less RAM will result in a sluggish system, as we discovered in our tests on several computers.) We tested the $149 Dragon NaturallySpeaking Preferred 9. Home users who don't need support for mobile devices can opt for the $99 Standard. Offices that want to run Dragon on a network should choose Professional. Legal and Medical editions are also available.

I do not know the difference between gentle and standard; I use the standard version and it is perfect for me. Sorry that's all I can offer.

Both programs are pre-installed with the basic starter program. The operating system is Windows 7, which I prefer over Windows 8.

I was wondering the same thing. Obviously one difference is price, in which I'm going with the cheapest!

The main difference between Essential and Home, Office, Premium, etc are the connectivity options (e.g. USB2, firewire, etc). For a full breakdown of the options and their differences, see: http://www.wdmybook.com/en/editions/If you mean the difference between 1st and 2nd Essential Editions (smaller, lighter, no on/off switch, auto power on/off, etc), see this excellent review: http://www.amazon.com/review/RDNCGQ3WR72U6/ref=cm_cr_rdp_permI think I'm going to wait to get a 2nd Edition Essential as I've read too many HDD failure stories with the 1st edition which I'm hoping has been corrected with the 2nd edition.

Hello,I remember choosing between the two as well. What I found out is it was the same (tray load). Its lower price is due to the fact that it doesn't come with the Multimedia Suite, which I didn't want anyway.

Hi Lynne, I believe it has to do with what comes with the printer. The printer is the same either way, but Signature Worthy Edition includes a nice assortment of fine art papers and maybe something else. I am not sure since I ordered the Standard Edition, but that is what I heard. I had the same question when I ordered. I was okay with the Standard Edition provided the printer was the same, and I understand it is.~Linda

The device comes with good defaults, and can be used "as is," and almost every option you would want to change has been pulled out to a "quick start" page. MikroTik also has a demo page on their website running the software, so you can look at and test it.

I'm not certain that it is sir. I've used both and I'd say go with what the game recommends. For any normal day to day computer usage they'll both just sit idle if you know what I mean.

There are differences between models. The most common way is to select menu and clock. Then enter the appropriate info.

There's a lot of discussion about the advantages of the old version in the Amazon user reviews of both versions. I bought the (more expensive) old version and am happy with it, but never tried the newer one for comparison.

I would say the HD its the only one I have so I don't know how well the standard version works.

The only difference between the two versions is that the Professional version includes the database program Paradox and the Standard version does not.
