Thanks for the link Doug OT WINDOWS 98 SOUTHERN EDITION ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ It has come to our attention that a few copies of the WINDOWS 98 SOUTHERN EDITION may have accidentally been shipped outside the South. If you have one of these, you may need some help understanding the commands. The Southern Edition may be recognized by the unique opening screen: It reads WINDERS 98, with a background picture of Dukes of Hazard superimposed on their General Lee car. It is shipped with a Classic 4x4's with Gun Racks screen saver. Please also note: --The Recycle Bin is labeled "Outhouse" --My Computer is called "This Dern Contraption" --Dial up Networking is called "Good Ol' Boys" --Control Panel is known as the "The Dashboard" --Hard Drive is referred to as "4 Wheel Drive" --Floppies are "them little ol plastic disc thangs" --Instead of an error message a "garbage bag and roll of duct tape" pops up CHANGES IN TERMINOLOGY IN SOUTHERN EDITION: --OK = at's aw-right --Cancel = stopdat --Reset = try er agin --Yes = yep --No = noop --Find = hunt fer it --Go to = over yonder --Back = back yonder --Help = he'p me out heah --Stop = kwitit --Start = crank 'er up --Settings = settin's --Programs = stuff 'at duz stuff --Documents = stuff ah done did Also note that SOUTHERN EDITION does not recognize capital letters or punctuation marks.
