Hi friends,
I want to buy laptop, I know various sites (like pixmania...) and few showrooms (darty, fnac...)

1. AZERTY keyboard, I prefer QWERTY but not a big issue, obviously I can get used to AZERTY

2. I see all laptops with preinstalled Win VISTA Home edition in FRENCH (obviously Smile )
I googled about 'changing language of Vista OS'
(mind you, I am talking about 'Display language' and NOT 'input language' ... which can changed throught Regional & language option.
So, what I learned is, its easy to change language in Vista Ultimate and Enterprise editions.
But for Home edition the solution proposed at many places were to install Vista in engilish.
It's not fair

Is this really some thing to worry about? Anyone has faced / solved this issue?

Thanks in advance,
Sameer

i too recently bought a laptop., as far as i researched, dell is the only provider in france who can get u all the s/w in english and the keyboard either in english or french.

Try with hp website too, may be they provide english softwares and windows, but not sure. No store sells laptops with english s/w installed

There are so many company are available for sell its laptop in the market. In all I prefer the DELL and acer Laptop. But some other company laptop are also good. but you have to choose as per your requirement and purchase in your budget.
