All the distros I used were GUI-focused, like Mandrake, Kubuntu, etc.

I share your view of the CLI, as I explicitly mentioned in the very post you quoted. That same post also outlined the very specific reason I can't use Linux as my main OS - there is no equivalent to Dragon in Linux.

The reason I upgraded to 32GB of RAM is because it was the most economical way for me to upgrade my PC's ability to get more out of Dragon. I can now use it to control my browser, and leave it running for making posts in forums like these and other situations where once I would have typed. Dragon is very memory-intensive, running in WINE not feasible. Dragon is the reason I stopped using Linux as my primary OS. If there were a similar-quality alternative, I'd be happy to revert to Linux as my primary OS.
