My understanding of this is that the languages are the ROM images. In essence, if you need your PPC to be in English instead of French, you need to find the English ROM that is compatible for your hardware. Also, I understand that you can TRY to obtain an English ROM image from Dell, but it will cost you $$$, if they will even sell it to you (I've even heard that you may have to pay close to the cost of the retail device for the image). There are people out there that have hacked foreign ROM images to make them work for their hardware, but that is illegal so I'm not going to get into that. Hope you find a viable solution.
