Interesting:

Let's try it again on Mac OS 10.4.11 and Ubuntu 10.04:

Funny . . . now it gave a 'fart' when I opened it the first time on my 
MacMini.

Now I typed 'search' into the 'search box and it gave me a reference to 
a website
on Geocities that does not exist anymore . . . cool or what?

Typed 'Unicode': nix.

Typed 'button': nix.

OK, on the Google "tab" it gives me a simple Google search - but, hey, I 
have a couple
of web-browsers installed on each of my systems.

Possibly naive (wouldn't be the first time), I imagined it would come up 
with RunRev relevant
information.

The 'Dictionary Quick Search' is significantly slower than the inbuilt 
Documentation . . . err . . .
waiting . . . wow:

"Could not find "button" as a string in the dictionary"

I wonder quite what you mean by "useful"? Certainly evidencing a 
semantic shirt there, methinks.
