It has come to our attention that a few copies of the WINDOWS
2000--ALABAMA EDITION may have accidentally been shipped
outside of the STATE of ALABAMA.
If you have one of these, you may need help understanding the
commands. The ALABAMA EDITION may be recognized by the unique
opening screen. It reads: WINDERS 2000, with a back ground
picture of Willie Nelson superimposed on a bottle of moonshine.
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

We regret any inconvenience it may have caused. If you
received a copy of the ALABAMA EDITION, you may return
it to Microsoft for a replacement version.
I hope this helps all y'all!
