>re: How does a computer handle the Chinese language (or Japanese for that matter)? Answer: Not very well. The character set is a HUGE problem, it has stunted the growth of computers in those countries. One solution is to use english, obviously this is not an option for everyone although plenty of people in those countries use this solution. In graphical environments such as Windows, there are solutions for dealing with these languages in terms of inputting them and displaying them, but they substantially increase the processor demand, memory requirement and difficulty of use (it often takes more than one keystroke to enter a character). Plus, they tend to not be universal across all programs installed on the computer.
