[Hello]

[Clint Thayer]

so let me get this right...  I use a Japanese distribution, but it has an
English install?  What about the actual OS once it's installed?  English or
Japanese?

sorry if this appears to be a foolish question...  just the thought
installing an OS for a language I have zero knowledge is dishearten!

About that KDE question...

Yeah companies want money. But besides this there is full distro isos
available for SuSE 7.1 on the web.

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/japanese-7.1/

These are the full version isos for the Japanese distribution. They also
feature an English install option if you are not familiar with Japanese.
