but i'd thought i'd add something to this from a language point of view. My previous install was using XP Pro, which was fine when i wanted to add Thai to the language bar. However, when I wanted to add Chinese (Traditional) to the language bar, it caused no end of headaches as that was never listed in my language service pack and trying to download it independently was a no go. I therefore, decided it was time to make the leap forward and go with something a bit more multi-lingual friendly, which Microsoft Windows 7 is - surprisingly. It was dead simple, adding Chinese to the language bar, and know I can easily switch between Thai, English and Chinese, with a few shortcut keys. However, I was a bit disappointed to read that Microsoft Windows 7 is only available in 5 languages, which might come as a bigger disappointment to people not versed in those 5 languages.
Will have to wait and see if 2010, brings any updates and developments to this.
