1. I could understand everything he said but I am a kiwi. I came over to England once and EVERYONE thought I spoke crap, like I wasnt educated. So annoying!
2. @nzajs It work's when ur opening apps n closing them, but when trying to speak for it, it's total crap
3. @TheDSC of course i am Irish though... >.>
4. @TheDSC i am american and i am VERY soft spoken... and i could understand everything he was saying and i can understand anything anyone with an accent says
5. Fast food for friends bowling xD
6. i think it actually did a pretty good job
7. Vista is allright, but the speech recognition is crap. Hopefully they let the people behind Natal work on the speech recognition in Windows 8 (or whatever the next version's called.
8. PNBHS?
9. Lol me too, im in NY atm, and I feel like im speaking to everyone like they are retarded haha its the only way they understand. Cant wait to get back to NZ and cant start talking with my quick mumble again ;)
10. Hahaha xD
11. roflcopters
12. LMFAO "good morning, my name is CALLUG" ive been using speech recognition for about a year now, and it still never understands a word of what i say, even if i speak in the most perfect queens english.
13. I have no trouble understanding his accent. I saw a previous post that mentioned the new zealand dialect being particularly fast paced, but I would love to see Vista try to reason out a Welsh accent, which is particularly fast paced in most parts of the country, and usually accompanied by a strong accent, a combo which often leaves people stumped.
14. It starts of good, and then at the end is talking total shit I hate Vista, and this just gives another reason us Kiwi's should not have them =)
15. lol, when I was in the America, I had to start speaking really slow, because people kept asking me to repeat myself...lol.
16. Loved it. I could understand every word that came out of his mouth
17. lol
18. LMFAO
19. I LAUH RED SO HAR D I WAAS LIKE CRYING
20. Jeez we heave in accint Thits nahws ta mi? Um cinfewzd?
21. Haha good show. . . .
22. What is everyone on about you mumbling? You sound clear as to me but im another kiwi as well (Apparently I have a fairly thick accent according to my aussie relatives) Mind you were a bit quiet in places. Thats why the LOUD mouth Americans cant understand you. They are as well yelling at each other. ;)
23. LOL =D
24. hahahahaha
