Use the dictionary widget and set it to thesaurus?
copy the word, paste it into the widget, and there you go. How
simple is that?

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?

I just got it a couple of hours ago. I had to go back to the
download page after I press the agree button and then it took
me 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
. Nisus Writer is not required.
