by Ben Boychuk, Macworld.com
A really good dictionary is an indispensable part of any library, home or office. I have three unabridged dictionaries in my office, along with two thesauruses and maybe a half-dozen dictionaries devoted to specialized subjects. Stacked on my living room floor, my reference books come to my chin and easily weigh 100 pounds.
