Language set up for window vista

hi,
I want to know if i can choose a language other than english for my window when i set up my computer? 
I want to get a new pc for my parents, but they preferred the window in chinese language. I know computers (window) in Asia can set up in either english or the regional language, so i wonder if we can do that in here.
 
Thx!!  ^^;

    If you purchase the Windows Vista Ultimate, you can shoose any of the 20 diferent languages you want. This is one of the "exclusive" Ultimate features.

    牯牯仔,VistaHome喺可以輸入中文嘅,但如果你要有中文介面,據我所知要Ultimate囉。Control Panel -> System -> Upgrade Windows Vista 內可以升級你的Windows。:)

    o.o
    meaning that when u start window vista, from the "start buttom on vista" to the "menu bar on IE" all change to chinese.  i dont mean just to type chinese in the window or on the world wide web. becoz u can type and read online in any language on any english window. for example, if u added the chinese keyboard on your english window, u can type chinese right away (without any installation/dl).
     
    btw, i asked someone in bestbuy today, he told me all window vista can change to other language. only need to download the language pack from microsoft. well, im not sure, but i will try that later.
     
    thx all~~~ ^^

    ya, i know vista can type chinese right away; unlike XP u have to d/l the language pack in order to add a keyboard to your window.
     
    i will try to change the window language setting later... thx...
     
     
    p.s.  im a gal, so dont called me 牯牯仔~~ hahah... ^^

    RE OldMom:
     
     
    ya, just add the (language) keyboard u want from the bottom bar (how u call that? u should see "EN" somewhere on lower right, just right click that), then under (setting) u can add a keyboard.
     
    u should be able to see another language tab when u click on that "EN" tab, select the language you added, then the "word" in that language should pop up while u type (if u do it right)...  ^^;
     
    good luck!!

    RE GioAguilar:
     
    *o*
    im not sure, i will have to wait until the pc comes.
    personally i dont like to use other language on the window becoz after u change to that lang.,
    everythg you download from the web will use that language as default (even if u dont want to).
    anyway, thx again...
