Dear Ellen; I have a new iMac that I bought in November with 2GB of RAM and installed Parallels and an older version of Dragon NaturallySpeaking, 7.3. It works marvelously, in fact, I am replying to e-mail online using it. Are you going to be using NaturallySpeaking Professional, medical, or preferred? I would have different recommendations depending on which version you're using. If you're using professional, I would run through as many documents as you can to establish your medical vocabulary. Another useful third-party tool is KnowBrainer and their medical dictionaries. That is personally what I use. However, I have not install that here since I'm still waiting for a final fix on Parallels update for when they accommodate accessibility modifications. I still use iListen in my Mac applications for simple tasks that are repetitive, but the fact that it will not acknowledge my last name correctly nor any of the medical terms I use, it is easier to work in Parallels for lengthy, or medical documents. Let me know if I can help in any way...
