New to Mac: Dictation Software Question

D

Hello everyone:


I'm trying to switch from PC to Mac and I'm wondering is there any dictation software (i.e., speech recognition) available for it? I want to point out that I am inquiring about a professional-grade software, as someone told me that there's something built in OS that incorporates speech recognition as well.

I've been using Dragon Naturally Speaking for PC and it'd be awsome if Mac had some sort of the similar software to convert?

Thank you in advance.

Yep that's the only one that I can think of also. Well there is iListen, but Im not sure it's "professional grade" though.. maybe someone else has used it and can comment on it.
