I've not used Gramcord, so don't know how it stacks up.
I've been using Bible Windows now since its beginning, and find that it does
absolutely everything I need from a Bible program. It gives me access to
the Hebrew, Greek, Latin, German and English texts, the Online Bible,
Strong's cross references, Louw and Nida's lexicon, the intermediate Liddell
and Scott, the Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew lexicon, grammatical and string
searches of the BHS, LXX and GNT, string searches of the other texts,
concordance construction, etc. For those interested in using the TLG, it
shares a common interface with Silver Mountain's TLG software. There's
more, but that's enough to sell me.
The only thing that Accordance has over Bible Windows, as far as I know, is
quick access to some of the secondary literature--and I prefer books for
that anyway. For exegetes it's hard to beat Bible Windows.
