Hi there
A lot of the Language packs that are available in W7 still aren't available in W8 yet. (The display language packs that you can add on to the basic Windows version) -- I don't mean a fully "National Version" of Windows itself.
This could cause some users (and businesses) to delay upgrading for a while.

The W7 ones don't work on W8.

Hopefully these will appear before Oct 26 or whenever W8 is officially released -- otherwise this IS a showstopper for some of our users.

screenshots -- W7 Language available -- W8 Language not available.

Cheers
jimbo
