First, Thank you Fliar
Now on to the keyboard ~ things may have changed, but 4 years ago I was on a project in Japan, the mill provided a computer. It was Japanese they changed the operating system to English but had to get an English keyboard as the Japanese had a few extra keys and some keys did not "type" what they indicated for example a number 5 key may type 4 they were shifted to the right (or left I can not remember), to many beers and years ago!
Of course all of this "advise" may change if the computer shop sells an English Export model.
