There may be a problem with the installer using the geographical
location to guess (wrongly) at the default language to use.  I have had
several instances where the UI ended up having bits in the wrong
language.  For example, I have one right now where parts are in Finnish
while most is in English:

	$ ls -lh
	total 44K
	drwxr-xr-x 2 lars lars 4,0K huhti 25 15:14 Desktop
	drwxr-xr-x 2 lars lars 4,0K huhti 25 15:14 Documents
	...

Same for some of the graphical apps and utilities.  It's something I
have to look at more closely when I start testing again.

Along those lines it irks me to no end that many web sites, despite
offering content in my language, choose to override my browser's
language settings and offer content in the wrong language(s).
