comparison of Strong's resources
NTSK seems to be hardwired to "New Strong's Dictionary of Hebrew and Greek Words" ($29.99) for its Strong's links. So I started looking for that resource and noticed another Strong's resource that seems similar -- "Enhanced Strong’s Lexicon" ($24.95).
I apparently have "A Concise Dictionary of the Words in the Greek Testament and The Hebrew Bible" by Strong.
I'm wondering how these resources compare. The web site product descriptions do not say very much and I cannot find online product information for the Concise although the info in the library is pretty detailed.
Anyone know how these products compare?

EDIT: I reworked this post quite a bit.
I have all three of them. Here's a comparison:
The latter two look virtually identical in their main content. The New Strong's has no pagination so I can't tell whether it is longer than the "Concise Dictionary." According to Amazon.com, the Concise Dictionary is 560 pages, and there is nothing called The New Strong's Dictionary of Hebrew and Greek Words. But the book with the same front cover on it as the one Logos calls The New Strong's Dictionary of Hebrew and Greek Words which, according to Amazon (and the cover image in Logos) is called The New Strong's Complete Dictionary of Bible Words, has 736 pages. The Concise Dictionary has this section at the end which The New Strong's doesn't:

Thanks or all that work. My eye needs things I'm comparing to be close together. So I did a little quick-and-dirty cropping to come up with an adaptation of your images.

Interesting - looks to me like New Strong's Dictionary and Concise Dictionary of the Words are identical...

I noticed a few minor differences but I don't see why I should have to buy the New SD in order to make NTSK work correctly, since these resources seem to be so close.

If it has anything to do with Strong's, hide it. Use a REAL Greek or Hebrew lexicon.

Right now I'm just interested in getting NTSK links to work (as per http://community.logos.com/forums/t/29262.aspx)
