Does anyone know if the situation in the linked-post has changed? Is there a way now in 2007 that didn't exist in 2005?

Ok, it looks like with XP, the language-pack is part of the OS binary (if I have understood the windows site correctly).

it seems they've improved the architecture with the Vista; such that you can just switch language-pack, mid operation (i.e. you don't have to re-install the Operating System and choose english, you can switch 'on-the-fly' so to speak).
