I am looking to obtain some of my dictionaries on CD-ROM and was wondering if anyone knew if the following were available in this format:

- Langenscheidt Muret-Sanders Großwoerterbuch der deutschen Sprache German-English

- Collins German Dictionary

- Ernst Woerterbuch der industriellen Technik German-English

-Romain/Byrd/Thielecke Woerterbuch der Rechts-und Wirtschaftssprache

TIA for any suggestions

...have quite a presence on the Kindle Appstore. (Generic dictionaries).

I haven't seen any specialist dictionaries on the Kindle Appstore, think that's some way off yet even for the "big" language pairs, much less smaller ones like mine. No doubt they should be available on CD-ROM though.

You can get "Langenscheidt Muret Sanders e-Großwörterbuch Deutsch - Englisch. CD-ROM" from the German Amazon:

...it's a bit expensive though, but there are "4 neu" from the marketplace for much less. ▲ Collapse

Ooooh, again quite a hefty price tag. I didn't have any luck with the last one, my German is now more than a little rusty and only got me so far ▲ Collapse

Not Romain, but Dietl Jan 7, 2013

As far as I know, Romain isn't available on CD-ROM, but Dietl ist. It's pretty spendy, too, but I find it very useful. You can do full context searches, so you're not limited to searching just DE>EN or EN>DE.
