Tiffany Aching, wasn't it?

I guess you must be feeling quite lucky if you're going to install 
Xandros.  When they thought up multilingual versions, they did 
translations into German, Dutch, and French.  When they do have anything 
CJK, it is light years out of date and it is normally Chinese (their 
"Asia Specialist" [sic] thinks the whole world wants to write Simplified 
Chinese).

It is like the description of Earth in the Hitchhikers Guide to the 
Galaxy ... mostly harmless ... except the parts that aren't.
