[Ti] Taking a US computer to Europe

[David DelMonte]

I can read greek and french texts ok. I have used the international 
preference pane and selected French and Greek there. I can see all 
three flags - US, French and Greek - but the greek flag is dimmed and 
cannot be selected. The same goes for other unicode languages.

Ideas?

David
