Hmm--a link or 2 took me to

<https://www.knowbrainer.com/storefront/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=55>

where an upgrade from 8 to 9 can be had for $50 after rebate.

My problem is not with dictating, but with User profiles becoming 
inaccessible after I ran Win System Restore. As BillK and others 
confirmed, this is known to kill something crucial, and recovering is 
a long and winding road. Since in my experience it's inevitable that 
sometime I *will* need to Restore again, this is dire news. I don't 
get the impression that DNS 9 or 9.5 has fixed this. Sigh.
