From macintouch:
[Jay Cowan] "There is an amazing feature in Mac OS 10.1 that no one seems to have noticed. Mac OS 10.1 is able to run applications in nearly any language. One of the helpful Apple Reps at Seybold showed me:
1. Open Internet Explorer in US English, with English menus, then quit explorer.
2. Open the "international" settings in the control panels and push the Japanese language to the top of a language preferences list.
3. Without even closing that control panel, restart Internet Explorer.
4. The splash screen is now in Japanese, and when the program opens (in about one second) the entire application (menus, dialog boxes, etc.) is in Japanese! Unicode is fully supported!
The same thing worked with Spanish and German. And it worked with several major carbonized applications that I tried."
I'm not at home with my macs now... Can anyone verify this? Perty cool if true. Kinda like the Universal Translator, well, not really, but I was just in the "Enterprise" section...
