Answer 1 :
there are no inherent risks per se, however a couple considerations: If you can find out what a typical laptop costs over there, you can check the monetary exchange rate and see if it'll cost more or less in Japan. Also, remember that the keyboard will be different. It still has all of the typical QWERTY keys, but also has additional Japanese keys, and a slightly different layout to accommodate them. Oh, almost forgot... the primary OS language will be Japanese. if you can get by with that until you or someone you know over there can help you load the US language (assuming you don't know Japanese), then you'll be fine
Answer 2 :
its going to cost more, its going to be in japanese, japanese warranty, why not just buy it in america first so you dont have to deal with crap like that get a mac
