This came up on another thread, but I wonder if the ed. can give us an explanation as to why the AB spellchecker is the US version. Try typing 'colour', 'catalogue' or 'honour' amongst many others and you will see what I mean.

what spellchecker?
AB hasn't got a spell checker.

If you are seeing spell checking it is on your browser. If you are using firefox install the UK Dictionary.
