Since I don't know the factors involved and you do, I must then ask how to reconcile this with the fact that the first version of Dragon NaturallySpeaking was released in 1997. My smartphone is definitely more powerful than even a top-of-the-line 1997 desktop PC.
Now, I am sure Dragon V1 would be quite underwhelming to my modern notions of how computers should work. But I would even say my smartphone is better than a middle-of-the-road PC from 2010. It's better than my PS2, and even my PS2 had a few games that had speech interface (some Navy Seals game, it worked pretty well).
What factors are at play? Is it the noise cancellation? Seems like a stationary device in a home has the ideal chance to create a reusable noise cancellation profile.
