I was informed by a Dell Technical Support Technician that Dell laptops are not compatible with Dragon Naturally Speaking software.  I have been unable to find any documentation on this matter.  I have also contact Nuance and they were unaware of this as well.  I do use this speech-to-text program and can certainly attest to having numerous issues with my Dell laptop.  Has anybody else experienced shut downs with Dragon?  Is there any written documentation on this?  (I am an assistive technologist and have been warning all my clients about this issue, advising those using Dragon to avoid Dell due to what I've heard from Dell, but would like to have more information on the matter in order to educate my clients on the specifics of the situation.)

Thanks for any and all help.
