Software Alert
From The Big Guys:
It has come to our attention that a
few copies of the West Virginia edition of Windows 98 may have
accidentally been shipped outside of West Virginia.
If you have one of the West Virginia editions, you may need some
help understanding the commands.
This edition may be recognized by
looking at the opening screen. It reads WINDERS 98 with a
background picture of the General Lee super imposed 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.' 'Dial-up 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
plastic disc thangs.'
Instead of a error message you get a winder covered with a garbage
bag and duct tape.
Simple command translations:
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 it up
settings = sittins
programs = stuff at does stuff
documents = stuff I done done

punctuation marks.
