screen reader users, beware. here be katakana and romaji. 

I'll be honest, I find Japanese interesting for a lot of reasons, but one of them is the way it just sometimes throws english words written in katakana at you. Like, the driver CD for my drawing tablet has "Installation CD" written in a bunch of languages, except Japanese, where it's a "タブレットドライバ CD" (taburetto doraiba CD), which is just "Tablet Driver CD" written in katakana. It amuses and interests me all at once.

screen reader users, beware. here be a lot of other languages in the image description 

Here's the CD if you're curious

re: the intuos disk japanese thread 

Before you ask, no, I didn't take this picture just for this. I've been uploading some ISOs from disks I have to the Internet Archive and this was one of the ones I uploaded.
