I don't know what you call it in the US, but an example is "hot desking": an employer provides fewer desks than there are employees, eg 50%. The other 50% are, at any given time, either working from home or on the road etc. When you drop in to HQ, you get allocated a free desk, with a PC. You'd like that to work in your own language. A similar example is travel between the locations of a multi- national/global company. You arrive in X, get offered a vacant desk and want to start working. Oops, you don't comprehend Klingon! Misha --- Hi i18n folks, At the Sevilla conference last week, a few mentioned the need to be able to dynamically switch the language of the client's menus and so on. I'd like to hear a few examples of situations where this is really needed (as opposed to just being "nice"). Thanks, Erik
