The Mac does have them both but the Thesaurus isn't easily accessed if
I need a word on the fly when I'm writing a document.

There is a dictionary and thesaurus built in to OSX but I can't seem
to figure out how to access them via voice over. The hint I found
was here:

but they talk about putting the mouse over a word and hitting
control-command-d. So I thought I could just highlight a word in
text edit, do VO-command-F5 to move my mouse cursor to where my VO
cursor is and then do control-command-d to get the dictionary/
thesaurus but no luck. Maybe this works in 10.5?

to the download link. I thought the same thing when I tried it too.

Listers if you have a need for a thesaurus for documents that
you create then check out the Nisus Writer thesaurus at http://www.nisus.com/free/Download_th.php
