Controversial times. I've made a rather big (27.4 x 18.8 x 6.2 cm) move away from Oxford English. There's no question in my mind about Roget's, which is a brilliant thesaurus. Collins I hope will prove it's worth, I've been completely seduced by the shiny newness of it.
Postscript:
My dictionary has arrived from Amazon, and is a truly beautiful, beautiful thing. The pages are off-white, thin as bible paper, it sounds just as though big book of words should sound when the pages are turned. In addition, each section shows the complete alphabet and title in a font beginning with the same letter. RIP Oxford.
