ppp: Perfect Product Words (Computer): list

In these words, the highest letter value equals the product of the other letter values. These words were discovered by a computer program written by Mark Schnitzius. Many of the words here are quite obscure. This list is organized by length; first three-letter words, then four, and so on. Although the list is extensive, it's not complete because the word list it came from doesn't included inflected forms of words (past tenses, plurals, and so on). Some of these items may be proper nouns. I've put a + next to the ones I particularly like; my criteria are (a) common words that (b) don't just consist of some number of As plus some number of one other letter.
