July 09, 2001 :: "The Microsoft-English Dictionary"

I’ve always been fascinated by languages and words. At last count I had 37 dictionaries. I also have an entire folder of bookmarked online dictionaries. So when I heard there was a Microsoft-English Dictionary, well I had to see it.

The Microsoft-English Dictionary is organized into four sections:

  1. Legal, Marketing, and Internet Community Terms
  2. Security-Oriented Terms
  3. Product-Related Terms
  4. Miscellaneous Terms

The dictionary alternates between solid tech jargon and some downright scary terms. [Did you know they refer to Mac OSX and the Open Source movement as “Cancer?”]
