Windows XP TEXAS EDITION
Dear Consumers:
It has come to our attention that a few copies of the
WINDOWS XP TEXAS EDITION may have accidentally been
shipped outside of the STATE of TEXAS.
If you have one of these, you may need help
understanding the commands. The TEXAS EDITION may be
recognized by the unique opening screen. It reads:
WINDERS XP'er, with a background picture of GEORGE
STRAIT superimposed on a bottle of JOSE CUERVO
TEQUILA.
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 THE TEXAS EDITION:

We regret any inconvenience it may have caused. If you
