Re: Can Win XP become a "Japanese operating system"?

But I thought that Win XP Pro was Win XP Pro, and could be set to
English or to Japanese or to many other languages.

It can.

Can't I change my English environment to a Japanese environment?

You can, approximately. I haven't looked into whether you can change
the visual interface (e.g. start -> スタート).

What exactly does someone buying just the default XP in Japan get?

He (presumably) gets something that will run RPG School without mojibake. :-P

That sort of program that just won't display Japanese properly even with
'non-unicode programs use [Japanese]' set is rare but they do exist.
