I see there's a X31 on clearance, but it's a french version. Is the bios loaaded in french? And curious what a french keyboard looks like. Think it would be possible to order an english version of the recovery disks?
It's a lower end 1.3Ghz/1.4Ghz version, but for almost $800Cnd cheaper, might just be worth looking into.
Take a look at our

What does a french keyboard look like? Bios screen?
I am Canadian
In my expereince with french full size desktop keyboards they are usually Azerty ones... so you got a bit of a change of keys there, and the N M , button is either moved one spot to the right or left (can't remember). Unless you are a very fast touchtypist you should be able to use that kind of keyboard...but you do know that IBM sells the spare keybaords right ? You can change it yourself at least on the X40 series.

You can change the BIOS's language to English... there is an option somewhere.
