My guess is, if you can afford to buy the software over the internet and download or get a system disc then there are plenty of computer shops that would replace your Russian OS with what have you on your disc. Or, maybe, ordering by mail from your country (US, UK?) is possible? When I was moving to Japan, I bought a new English computer days before the departure. By the way, a friend of mine in Japan managed to buy an English OS computer, but still with kana on the keyboard and with some glitches. (...and I never trusted HP from my unix days when an HP workstation had been considered inferior to Sun and to SGI)
