Answer 1 :
nope, you shouldnt have to pay any taxes or what nots~♪ just label it as a gift, or even ask the post office people
Answer 2 :
Yes and No. Cos ths border line whether to be taxed or not is 10,000 yen (about US$90). If you label it as a gift, your sister may not get charged. However, the custom office also know laptop is not that cheap (maybe US$1000-2000?). You know when PSP and PS3 was placed on sale in Japan, lots of Japanese bought it and had sent to their friends in the world. Finally I read their posting that many of them (received side) were charged in Europe and US. I don't know how many % of the whole though. She can purchase English version at HP or DELL Japan. Consult them. http://welcome.hp.com/country/jp/ja/welcome.html http://www1.jp.dell.com/content/default.aspx?c=jp&l=jp&s=gen
Answer 3 :
Basically you won't be charged any customs taxes on a personal item like that. Just be sure that it doesn't look like it is going to be sold here in Japan. I had a friend that had his parents ship his notebook PC to him from the states. They packed it in all the original plastic and Styrofoam and plastic bags etc. He got charged.

Answer 1 :
try google
Answer 2 :
Click on Start, Settings, then Control Panel. Look for Regional and Language Options. Go through that to find out how to change it to English, and which English, U.K. or U.S. or some other. If English isn't loaded, and it should be, you can make XP load the language. Then choose the one you want. Click on Apply and OK and close the control panel. Log off and back on, and your language choice should be set
