Hi Larry,
   May I recommend the American Heritage Talking Dictionary??
 
   I bought it because I have a real problem with pronoucing words! :(
 
   This is windows based and will help you locate words and pronouces
them thru a sound card if you have it :) :) :)
 
   Also, it is a CD and was only like $39.99 from SoftKey software
 
Sorry if this is a PLUG but I use this CD all the time :)
