The Japanese themselves use windows, so saying windows is crappy
doesn't make a convincing argument.  :)    Besides, if your system is
crashing because it can't render fonts properly, it's time to
reinstall the whole OS because something else is seriously screwed
up-- not just fonts.

My point is, there are also OS/2 users who can't see Japanese fonts...
what I'm saying is... if you have a system that can't display japanese
fonts, too bad.  It's time for an upgrade to something that does.  
The group shouldn't cater to users who are using dinosaurs like
Win95/98, OS/2, DOS, Amiga, etc.   Windows 2000 and XP will never
crash on fonts..  I know because I'm using them now.

Besides all this, having the ability to write/read kana/kanji is an
investment in japanese learning.   I think everyone should take the
time to learn how to properly set up their computers to read/write
japanese and forget romaji altogether, but that's just my 2 cents.  
Afterall, you won't see romaji at all in Japan so how useful is it
really.
