    Dear Consumers:

    It has come to our attention that a few copies of the :

    WINDOWS 2000 TENNESSEE EDITION may have accidentally been shipped outside of the STATE of TENNESSEE.

    If you have one of these, you may need help understanding the commands.

    The TENNESSEE EDITION may be recognized by the unique opening screen. It reads: WINDERS 2000, with a background picture of Willie Nelson 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 TENNESSEE 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 TENNESSEE 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 TENNESSEE EDITION, you may return it to Microsoft for a replacement version.


    I hope this helps y'all

    They are a national treasure aren't they. My dad and I hired them for our scrapyard business 42 years ago. They could outwork anybody, until they got that little homesick bell ringing, and they'd be off to home. Noq, with more of them in their oil patch, I don't think a lot of eastern employers will ever know how good-humoured they are. Nicest folks you could ever meet.(y)
