Hi,

your company can create a single build that includes user interface
language support for all of the languages in which you do business. The
build can also include world-ready applications such as Office XP.

For example, if your company supports user interfaces in English, French,
Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese,
you can create a single global image that includes user interface support
for those seven languages. You can also make support for those languages
available for on-demand installation after deployment by using Windows
Installer packages.

Tip
Deploying and maintaining a single global image can significantly improve
IT efficiency and help lower many costs. It enables single-code-base
application development and testing, simplifies releasing hotfixes and
service patches, and reduces end-user support calls.
