Winders 98




It has come to our attention that a few copies of the Alabama
edition of Windows 98 may have accidentally been shipped outside
Alabama. If you have one of the Alabama editions you may need some
help understanding the commands.

The Alabama edition may be recognized by looking at the opening
screen.
It reads WINDERS 98 with a background picture of the General Lee
superimposed on a Confederate flag. It is shipped with a Daisy Duke
screen saver. Also note the Recycle Bin is labeled Outhouse, My
Computer
is called This Infernal Contraption, Dialup Networking is called
Good Ol' Boys, Control Panel is known as the Dern Dashboard, Hard
Drive
is referred to as 4 Wheel Drive, and floppies are them little ole
plactic disc thangs.

Other features:

Instead of an error message you get a winder covered with a garbage
bag and duct tape.

OK = ats aww-right
cancel = hail no
reset = awa shoot
yes = shore
no = Naaaa
find = hunt-fer it
go to = over yonder
back = back yonder
help = hep me out here
stop = ternit off
start = crank 'er up
settings = sittins
programs = stuff that does stuff
documents = stuff I done did

Also note that Winders 98 does not recognize capital letters or
punctuation marks.
