What spell checker? The one that is most likely part of your browser and not the forums?

This is one particular area where OS X rox0rz, because the spell checker is global on every text box. You don't need it per-app (Something I'm surprised Win. doesn't do yet....)

I can't get it to work with the Adobe suite under OS X. Only Illustrator includes one and it has to be manually invoked.

Because they're using Carbon (i.e. Adobe is stupid) - which is also why there's no 64 bit edition for OS X

I'm not even sure there's a 64-bit version of Photoshop for Windows yet. At least that's what Adobe told us this past summer when we called about PS for XP 64.

Well, I did switch to Firefox... but I was so excited when I saw that I had a spell checker for the Forums

Install an English dictionary then? Make sure it's 'UK', otherwise it may contain bad spellings such as 'color'.

I have a few English dictionaries installed - UK English, US English, and French.
