how to download the Japanese language into computer?? I'm in London right now. I'm using computers almost everyday but which of those cannot display the Japanese at all....Is there any website where I can download the Japanese for free?? I really wanna send e-mail to my friends in Japan, but I dont want to make it difficult for them to read what I type in Roman letters. Is it possible to download it for free or do I have to purchase a special CD-Rom or something for installment??
Everything you need to know about viewing and writing Japanese on a PC or Mac (or any computer) can be found here:

If you need to input Japanese on a non-Japanese version of XP you need to install an IME. The web page above includes links and instructions.
