WINDOWS 2000 TEXAS VERSION

Dear Consumers:

It has come to our attention that a few copies

of the WINDOWS 2000 TEXAS

EDITION may have accidentally been shipped

outside of the state of Texas.

If you have one of these, you may need some help

understanding the

commands.

The TEXAS EDITION may be recognized by the

unique opening screen. It reads:

WINDERS 2000, with a background picture of

Willie superimposed on the

Alamo.

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 Dashboard "

Hard Drive is referred to as " 4-Wheel Drive "

Floppies are " Them little ol' plastic thangs "

Instead of an error message, " Duct tape " pops up

CHANGES IN TERMINOLOGY IN TEXAS EDITION:

Cancel............stopdat

Reset..............try'er agin

Yes..................yep

No...................nope

Find.................hunt fer it

Go to...............over yonder

Back................back yonder

Help.................hep me out here

Stop..................kwitit

Start.................crank'er up

Settings............settins

Programs..........stuff at duz stuff

Documents.......stuff ah done did

Also note that theTEXAS EDITION does not

recognize capital letters or

punctuation marks.

Some programs that are exclusive to WINDERS

2000:

Tiperiter.....................a word processing

program

Colerin' Book.............a graphics program

Cyferin' mersheen.....calculator

Outhouse paper.........notepad

Inner-net....................Microsoft Explorer

5.0

Pitchers......................a graphics viewer

We regret any inconvenience it may have caused

if you received a copy of the

TEXAS EDITION. You may return it to Microsoft

for a

replacement version.

I hope this helps ya'll!

Howdy Kathi...

I know for a fact that almost all of these words are

in the dictionary...Webster's Texas Edition that

happens to have a forward written by Texas' most

colorful son (alive that is), Willie .

You are just going to force me to go on the internet

and find some okie jokes, aren't you?

I hope you have a good day! Hugs. Iris
