DDecker Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Howdy Dear Consumers: It has come to our attention that a few copies of the WINDOWS 2006 Southern EDITION may have accidentally been shipped outside of the south. If you have one of these, you may need help understanding the commands. The Southern EDITION may be recognized by the unique opening screen. It reads: WINDERS 2006, with a background picture of Waylon and Willie superimposed on a bottle of Jack Daniels. 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 Southern 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 (WHOA!) Start............crank'er up Settings..........settins Programs......... stuff at duz stuff Documents....... .stuff ah done did Also note that the Southern EDITION does not recognize capital letters or punctuation marks. Some programs that are exclusive to WINDERS 2006: 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 Southern EDITION, you may return it to Microsoft for a replacement version. I hope this helps all y'all! Billy Bob Get er done!

ScrapGirlsRo Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Okay. Well. That is funny. And not that far off from Utah folks, actually. Utah is loaded with 4 wheel trucks and SUV's, farmers, ranchers, and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
