- Easier than grabbing a heavy hardback
The MW Medical Desk Dictionary's best feature is that it's convenient. It offers you the option to install macros that put an icon on your Word or WordPerfect toolbar that will launch the dictionary. Highlight a word in your document, click the icon, and it will look it up. Type the beginning letters of a word in its search feature, and it will attempt to match what you type with a word in its dictionary. Where it fails is when you don't want that word and it's automatically filled the search box with some other word, so you have to delete the letters that don't apply. Sure, it's easier than grabbing a heavy hardback, and better than the outdated dictionary I had, but its automatic look-up ability needs serious work. I also wish it was a spell-checker plugin rather than an add-on dictionary; you can't tell Word (or any other Office application) that it's a dictionary you're adding in because there is no *.dic file for the program to find to add in. Still, for the money, this is a very good program if what you want is a dictionary and not a spellchecker.

- Tambien es en ingles /espanol
This is a very fine bilingual encyclopedia of the Spanish and English languages.

It installs within seconds and has extremely complex search capabilities in either language.

Whatever Amazon is charging for it - multiply by five and you will have a glimpse of the value of this CD-ROM.

Leave it in RAM. Read a Spanish language newspaper over the net. Watch Univision on cable TV. Pick words off the radio.

If you are using this dictionary to learn Spanish, you will ALSO have to have a verb book - it doesn't teach grammar, but it DOES teach modismos (idiomatic expressions).

It DOES know a noun from a verb from an adverb from an adjective.

This is an indispensable tool. Load it onto your laptop and take it to Mexico City or Miami or Venezuela. Share with the people you meet there.

- Limited usage
Don't wast your money on this spell checker. You will get some new words added to your existing checker (you could add them yourself)It's not really a spell checker, it is an add on to the spell checker you already have.

- Merriam-Webster's Spell Checker, Macintosh version
The last System Requirement shown on the box states " . . . a compatible text processing program." It is only when you read the Read Me file on the CD that you find out the only compatible program listed is Microsoft Word for the Mac. The Merriam-Webster web site (www.Merriam-Webster.com) is more specific: "Microsoft Office, including [Microsoft]Word (6.x and 7.x)." The manual installation procedure (there is also an automatic setup) tells you to replace your word processor's dictionary file with this one. This may be a good world processing program. Great, even. But it may also be a dictionary file, limited to use with Microsoft Word. (PC users will find it is used with Microsoft and Lotus products -- see the Mirriam-Webster web site for their list.)
