Max says that he might have British English on his servers in a Mac OS Anthology or Developer CD.

I have a non-bootable British English 7.6.1 from Max.

Edit: My first three-pager!

It arrived, but has a hinge problem: the two halves of the left hinge do not meet, and the left display cable has worked up into the bezel, and is pushing the bezel away from the screen. Any ideas on how to fix it?
At the risk of stating the obvious, have you tried taking apart the display assembly, repositioning the cable, and putting it back together? The 1400, including the display assembly, is extremely simple to take apart.

As for the OS thing, my 1400 runs Japanese 7.6.1 and has had a 166MHz model's logic board in it although it does not currently. EveryMac seems to have a few minor details about the 1400 wrong on their pages; for example, the 1400c(s)/133 page states that it has a 56MB RAM ceiling unlike the 64MB ceiling in the 117 and 166, but mine is a 133 and I have 64MB in it.
