so soon i will be able to afford a laptop. thank the gods because i'm tired of the dang pc bang. anyhoo, i'd read before that i was pretty easy to order from dell korea, provided you have someone help you with the korean. what i'm wondering is how or what you need to do to have them put an english windows on there instead of korean. i've read from other threads that if you buy at a store, or maybe even at yongsan if you just ask its not a problem. hoping its the same for the website. anyone ordered through there and gotten the english operating system? or barring that any other tips or advice for buying a dell online and making sure to get the os in english? thanks in advance for tips, help, etc. here's to new computers! hooray!

Yes, you can select that when you go through and decide what you want on your computer.

Dell will put an English OS on your new notebook. Just select that option when configuring your system. The website is in Korean, but the pics will help you navigate the process. Just click on the various options, check out, and pay by ATM. The checking out part is a bit harder though not impossible.

sweet thanks! thats what i assumed, but you know what they say about assuming. and i'm sure if i have my coteacher there as added help it wont be difficult. getting rather excited now. the only thing i'll need to worry about is buying a different cable when i return to the states. that whole different plug/wattage thingy. thanks!
