Differences between the U.S. System + Japanese Language Kit and the Japanese System:
U.S. System + Japanese Language Kit
-----------------------------------
This is a U.S. system that has the ability to display, print, and edit both Roman and Japanese text (as long as you use an application that supports WorldScript).
Japanese System
---------------
This is a fully translated version of the system software. All dialogs, menus, and so on are in Japanese. Like the first U.S. System + Japanese Language Kit, you can print, display, and edit both Roman and Japanese text.
The Japanese System Software is designed for the Japanese market where most people speak only Japanese. The Japanese Language Kit is designed for the U.S. market, for people who use English as their primary language, but want to be able to write or receive documents in Japanese, English, or both languages combined. A language kit can be installed onto any localized system software, such as Spanish, French, Italian, or even Arabic.
