G'day all this is another Joe but from Australia :)

I have old laptop with no korean keyboard layout (just english "qwerty" keys), how do I install so that I can type hangul...?


also I am thinking of buying another new laptop, I have red the thread "anyone bought DELL". I believe dell are having a massive sale at the moment because they will realease new model in august, If I buy in OZ then I can claim on tax so it will be even cheaper. so what you think?



so I gather finished electronic goods are expensive in korea?
so should I buy before I get to korea? or buy in korea?!?!??

thank you all for help

Try this http://www.zkorean.com/computer_settings.shtml for Korean IME.

Sorry, can't help with the local prices but I have always bought on-line.

Computer prices are not bad in Korea but due to the increasing strength of the won they are not as good as they once were. You can still find some good buys at the Yongsan Electronics Market and from online Korean shopping websites. A good hangul keyboard will run $20.

Computer prices are horrid on korea... about 30% more then what i pay in the US....

and go to microsoft to get the IME file. or add a korean launage in Microsoft underkeyboardss, sorry i'm rather tired so i can't be of more help

I can get new you hangul/Eng keyboards for $7 U.S. I don't know your shipping costs or import duties if you bring a new computer, or what you call good prices.
Plenty of used ones here if you are not picky.
If you have Windows XP you already have Korean in it. Somewhere back in our Korean forum is more info on it.
Call us when you get in!
