I'm bringing the fucking Ford F350 of laptops to Japan. I can just imagine the look on the locals' faces when I whip that seven and a half pounds of American pride out.

I thought someone here told me that the Japanese preferred ultra-lightweight laptops or sub-laptops...

But good service is highly prized over here... and Sony lacks it in a big way.

gai = outside so gaijin=outside person (similar to America's "legal or illegal alien")

You should see the look on locals' faces when I whip my seven and a half pounds of American pride out. :twisted:

Back on topic, I showed someone this site and the crazy engrish, and he got all high and mighty. I guess he wasn't familiar with the concept, but he thought I was a racist bastard for thinking this stuff was funny. I have never heard that reaction in my life. What the hell?

eskimoTesticles wrote:so actually could someone over there get me a vx9 :P theres gotta be a secure method we can do this.. and shipping shouldnt cost that much... and i really want to get uesd to the japanese language so i think it'd be nice having a japanese keyboard / os ... i can still install english applications right? i know the laptop doesnt have a cd rom but i really dont need one since it has wireless lan. well thanks if someone could help me i'd greatly greatly appreciate it. and i used the xe.com price converter and the laptop is under 1500 dollars... thats about my perfect budget i think, and the main thing i want is wireless internet and portability and that has it :P also just curious are bit char-g's still big in japan or already a dying trend? alright thanks for the replies again
If you're running XP, you don't need to have a Japanese laptop... just install the Japanese language IME (it's on the CD-ROM)... you'll be forced to use romanji as input (it's difficult to use direct kana input without the characters written on the keys), but it will work.

Oh, and whatever you do, don't put the decal on sideways like the owner of this one car that is always in the parking lot here did. He just didn't know, I guess, but he put the character "raku" (can't enter the kanji, can't install the IME on this work computer) sideways. Even my Korean friend who can only read about a dozen kanji knew immediately that it was wrong.

EDIT: this one, rotated 90 degrees to the left. Heh.
