Just a comment: many Japanese linux distributions offer much better
Japanese support than "any linux distribution". It requires quite a
lot of tweaking and changes to give proper support in the latest
versions of ghostscript, its viewers, TeX and friends, OpenOffice,
etc. There are plenty of commercial add-ons too (fonts and the like,
as well as Japanese-only applications) that make the local
distributions unique in their niche.
