Similar to saying "It's great" in english, > it's like saying "It's happy that your computer can now use japanese." I'm sorry, but you're wrong. "Ureshii desu" means "I'm glad/happy." The word "ureshii" means an internal state, like all the other "- shii" ending adjectives (i.e. kanashii=sad, kurushii=painful, etc.) though it is applied to an external state of various emotions.
