Giid e-dictionary
~ Written on Sep 30, 2009. out of users found this review helpful.

E-dictionary is very useful while writing. I can switch from Word to the dictionary and back again without moving anything more than a couple of fingers (Keystrokes). Merriam-Webster makes a good e-dictionary.

everything we were looking for!

I know there isn't much to say about a dictionary but, I will comment on this one. After buying my son a children's dictionary that was never completely helpful we added a paperback dictionary that was also incomplete. These days, if your child is in 1st grade or above, these "children's" dictionaries are obsolete. With the 2 different dictionaries, we were still, at times, having to go on the internet to find definitions of his spelling and vocabulary words. He is now in 4th grade and with this dictionary, I don't see having to buy another until college, if even then.

This item was given as a gift to a friend, who specifically requested it, and expressed great satisfaction on receiving it. Pricing, delivery and product integrity were all satisfactory. My rating it a 4 out of a possible 5 reflects only the fact that I lack first hand experience with the purchased item, and can only reflect the limited information conveyed to me by its recipient.

USED? College Dictionary

Nicer if integrated screens

I had a Webster's 10th some years ago on CD (Zane) which had a great interface and additional features this does not have. To me this edition is burdensome even though all of the words have complete entries. The addition of the unabridged version is very helpful and tilts it into being more useful. Speaking for myself, I really don't want to use a book type dictionary and this software mimics that process which makes it less intuitive and not integrated at all. I never open it feeling it going to make my task easier, although it does; it simply makes it more complicated than it needs to be.
