Greg Kilbrai asked about the punctuation marks in editions of the New 
Testament.  I do not remember what the origin is. (I may never had known.)  I 
remember reading in my first testament back in the late 70's the methods used 
in selecting the punctuation for that edition (N-A).  I recall Harold 
Greenlee had much to do with it. (That is why I read it.  It was rather dry.) 
 
As to editions using English pundtuation. the edition I now use has English 
punctuation.  If that is what you desire, I use an edition called the 
Majority Text published by Thomas Nelson in 1985. 
It does not have as much textual information.  I think the editors focused 
primarily on the documents from Asia Minor and Greece (Byzantiun) and they 
give information from the Alexandrian set only when the differences are 
greatly significant
