but be warned, it weighs in at just over �200(!) or there's always the option of a year's subscription to the OED online, which is more expensive (�195+VAT), but obviously more regularly updated. See http://www.oed.com/ for details

Dearie me, dearie me, dearie me. Thanx for the reverence sight, parrently nun of the cheepies is compattibul with Windas XP ither. I really wanted an offline one as I'm almost past reading print. Ah well, thank goodness for the internet and Answerbank.
I acquired the NEW SHORTER OXFORD ENGLISH DICTIONARY for "free" (ie full product given away on a computer magazine some years ago - rrp�29.99). Not as good as above obviously, but good value i thought. Look out for a similar offer again in the future? . . .

Sounds like a reasonable compromise, paul, I shall certainly keep an eye out.
Hi, Janetex

Came to this a bit late - Apologies. By sheer concidence, I happen to have been given as a gift recently a brand-new, immaculate 2-Volume set of the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, unopened and unused, r.r.p quite a bit. Although it's beautiful, I just simply have absolutely no use for it at all, [Email address removed as per site policy. Sorry, but this simply is not an exchange, barter or sale site! - AB Editor]
