- What it is
- A UK university IT page that explains how Dragon is licensed for its staff and names a wired and a wireless headset that VoicePower, a Nuance partner, can recommend.
- How much weight it carries
- An institutional page, not a Nuance document, and undated on the page. It reports the licence and hardware advice of one university and one reseller, so treat it as a practical example, not as Nuance's rules.
