upgrading to Windows XP (Traditional Chinese version)

[jordan]

I already saved all files to disk and deleted them from
the harddrive. If I install English language XP then
download the chinese language pack, my understanding is
that will only give the user the option of reading
letters/webpages, etc. in Chinese, but the actual Windows
XP program will still be in English which is not what my
Chinese speaking/reading partner wants.
