My CD-ROM is the Complete Oxford English Dictionary (20 volumes when printed out). I’ve tried using it with Virtual PC, but my understanding is that the copyright protections are at a level that prevent it from running on Virtual PC. I have an older iBook so I don’t have the intel chip. I was using Windows 98, but if it would work Virtual PC running XP, then I might give it a shot.

That's the one I have. A friend of mine contributed 12 new words that got included. They sent him twelve free copies. I got one. It works fine in VirtualPC on a PowerPC Mac.
