It's not the question of the locale, but of the number_format. Anyway,
that doesn't have "computer" either (sorry...); to prevent grouping
use the proper number_format. If you are concerned about
computer-audience non-integers too, you may also want to set the
locale so that it uses "." as the decimal point (like to "en"). As of
setting these globally, the default value of all settings can be set
globally were you configure FreeMarker.

For more info (and some copy-pasting) see:

http://freemarker.org/docs/app_faq.html#faq_number_grouping
http://freemarker.org/docs/app_faq.html#faq_number_decimal_point

Note that depending on what framework you are using, the specifying of
the setting values may not be done in Java as in the FAQ examples, but
in a .properties file, or in a Spring "beans" XML, etc.
