The Dictionary was the ultimate deciding factor for me. I absolutely love being able to look up the (many thousands of) words that I don't know. Also, it's nice having fairly decent access to wikipedia for when I want to know more information about something than a dictionary can provide. It's especially helpful when reading about history since you can look up all those obscure people who you've never heard of.
