But for instance, if you check on www.hp.com , we have more than 70 Locales listed and you always need to scroll up or down in the list to find your entry. Unfortunately, it is all in English (that is where the FAQ will come handy!) It was also mentioned that Locale labels should be written in its own script, but I have seen examples where the Locale label are written in the script in use on the web site pointed at. If the Russian web site is all in English, then the Sounds like a practical and user-friendly way of displaying Locales. /François
