Need a better Portuguese dictionary

I bought this Portuguese dictionary for Mac (Ultralingua) and the
dictionary they include kinda blows. The word results are ordered
alphabetically instead of by best-fit (so you get marginal
translations starting with the letter "a" before you get the most
useful ones), it isn't very comprehensive, and it gives minimal
explanation for the different possible translations so you're left
guessing.

The best dictionary I've ever touched (in terms of content... the
software was windows only, not great, and DRM'ed) was the Garzanti
Italian dictionary. Using that thing was a dream, there's something
so rad about never having to guess the meaning of a word or expression.

I want a Portuguese one of those.
