Although Bootcamp is free, you still have to buy a copy of XP to install on it! It's almost certainly cheaper to buy an old 2nd-hand PC.

The Reader supports UTF-8 and Unicode just fine. It's the fonts that include only Latin subset. If you update the fonts, you get any characters you need. There's no need to update the software. (Well, reportedly there are issues with RTL languages, but it's pretty rare to see proper software support for them anyway, when the product is not marketed in Middle East...)

That would be the current version of Connect. That either comes on the CD with the reader or can be downloaded from the Connect store.
