    Relax. PC5300 is 667Mhz. DDR stands for Double Data Rate which means that the transfer rate is effectively doubled. Thus a 333Mhz DDR memory has an effective clock rate of 667Mhz :)

    If you mean "change the OS to english" I'm afraid that's not possible :) to my knowledge you need to install with an English-language kit.
