You're right. I did miss his point. I do not like the fact that Microsoft
purposely did not put the feature into Outlook Express in order to get you
to buy some other product.

Hi Charles,
You are completely missing the point. The point Josh was making is
that Outlook Express does not come with a spell checker by default.
Microsoft intentionally left it out, because they wanted you to buy
Office to get it. In Mac OS the spell checker is a core component and
you don't have to go download some third-party spell checker program
because it already comes with the OS. For some people that may have
some tangible value and may be one more feature in favor of Mac over
XP.
Cheers!

I do have a spell checker that I found on the Internet. I use Outlook
Express 6 and Windows XP home edition. The spell checker was free. I
have
it always running. It is not an inconvenience at all. Although I am a
good
speller, I do want to give a good impression, and I do make occasional
typos
and spelling mistakes. In fact, I just made one on purpose, and you
won't
even notice it, because it alerted me to my error and I chose to correct
it
as suggested.
