Pro:
Explanations are displayed in a split screen, and if another term is referenced in the text a direct hyperlink is provided - an excellent feature.
Very welcome is that the lookup list updates itself immediately as each new search letter is typed (not so in other applications).
The dictionary really benefits from being powered by MSDict. The large clear controls and search entry box give a pleasant open and uncluttered screen. It really feels like a professional product.
Especially worth noting are the comprehensive selections available for different split screen modes, plus selectable text sizes, means you can get this looking exactly as you want it on screen.
Cons:
A minor point, I would like to be able to change text and background colors in the list and reader screens.
