The product description on the packaging and also here on Amazon promises that "Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9" the Windows Vista operating system support. In fact, this is true only for 32-bit operating systems. On a 64bit system the installation aborts with the laconic error message that this system is not supported. A call to the telephone service by Nuance confirmed this limitation. They will put off until version 10. Conclusion: The description of the system requirements on the package and on the Internet is false and deceiving the buyer. A real nuisance.
