how to display menu in different languages?

If I have an US version of vista and sometimes I want the menus and all text
displayed by the OS to change to a different language (e.g. spanish,
italian...), is it possible to do it by setting an option somewhere, or do I
have to buy a diffferent localized version for each language?

I think in ultimate and business version u can download language packs but
the home versions you cant..

For consumers, only the Ultimate version of Vista supports changing
languages.

Only the Ultimate version for consumers or the Enterprise Edition (Volume License) versions are able to do this
