Anna Langley asks:
I'd like to know which dictionaries (online or printed) you use to research computer terms.
---------------------------

I've used the Microsoft Computer Dictionary for general computing
http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/5582.asp

But I've also used the WhatIs web site:
http://whatis.techtarget.com/

But in general I tend to pick terms out of books that I'm reading and hope those books have glossaries. I love glossaries. ;-) And actually, speaking of glossaries, the Glossarist is a pretty darn cool site to find them.
http://www.glossarist.com/

-------------------------
It is often frustrating to me when I find the same computer term spelled differently in different dictionaries, so I'd like to have one standard.
-------------------------

Good luck on this. :-)
