Taiwan is being overshadowed by the monstrously growing mainland China today. However, its cultural heritage is as rich as mainland China where it originated. The authenticity of the traditional Chinese scripts used in Taiwan and Singapore should not be overlooked in favor of the simplified Chinese used in the mainland China. If you are studying Chinese or do business with Taiwan or the mainland China, you may sometimes come across Chinese versions of Windows Vista.
I installed Taiwanese Windows Vista to see what it's like. Since I have almost no knowledge of Chinese, it was like guesswork most of the time. Often I had to rely on my experience with English Windows Vista. But as times went on, I learned the meaning of some Chinese characters naturally. It is such an enlightening expererience to use Taiwanese Windows Vista.
