Don't worry about that !!

you can use Japan keyboard in US PC , keyboard just a input device , all the key code is the same , but system will transform to your language :)

just do it !!

The Chinese keyboard layout is actually identical to the US ANSI layout, the only difference is the legends printed on the keycaps. If you plug it into your computer it will function exactly like a US keyboard.

actually most Chinese keyboards are not even printed in Chinese thanks to the use of hanyu pinyun romanization. I think looking for a Chinese-language printed keyboard is harder than a Chinese-made (Eg Keycool) keyboard that is exactly US standard.

Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

Only the printing on the caps is different. And only keyboard from Taiwan would have Chinese version, in mainland, I never see one with any type of Chinese caps, expect it is made for learning 五笔....
