With appropriate software, you can use a microphone to give spoken
commands to your Macintosh and to record your voice or other sounds.
You need the Apple PlainTalk Microphone (or a compatible microphone) to
use speech-recognition technology with the Macintosh. Some models of the
Macintosh come with the microphone. You can obtain the microphone from

with some other Macintosh models.)
The Apple AudioVision 14 Display has the Apple PlainTalk Microphone
