This would be an easy thing to do, using REQUEST.HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE, but we prefer to leave our users in control, letting them choose their language themselves independent of browser localization. Here in scandinavia, a lot of people use US/english OS and browsers, partly because they're used to it, partly because you'll get upgrades a bit quicker..
But the language setting is still a user choice. It is set in the Preferneces of your browser. I think it is the best way for a choice of the server, but I still offer the user information that this was done and a language choice, so they can switch to the language they preffer for that site.
