I did try to search this area before I posted this since it seems like it would have been asked.

Why don't we have a spell checker?  We perfectists are in pain.  I actually drop most of my posts into an email first to do a spell check.

This site has enough problems with the CPU as it is.  Let's not add in another computation sucker, eh?

I have Ask Oxford (the online Oxford English dictionary) as one of my favourites. It doesn't protect against typos or what I do if typing in a hurry, hitting the letters next to the ones I intend to or even as well as the intended ones. :-[
I have been known to type the post on another board, use their spellcheck (US and UK spellings) copy it to here and delete the post before posting it on that board.

I believe some browsers have it built in natively, and others may have plugins as well.  Regardless I prefer this as a client-side solution, not a server-side one.
