Thank you :-)

two more questions:

1) Someone says that APDA carries KanjiTalk for $75(?). Is it still on the
   list?  Does it include manuals?

2) Is $400 a reasonable price for system software? (I know it's a secondary 
   system software for most of the users. I also know in Japan we must pay 
   about $500 if you have imported macs)
