Winders 98 - Suthern Edition

Winders 98 - Suthern Edition

It has come to our attention that a few copies of the "Winders 98 - Suthern Edition" may have accidentally been shipped outside the South. If you have one of these, you may need some help understanding the commands. The southern edition may be recognized by the unique opening screen. It reads WINDERS 98 with a background picture of General Robert E. Lee superimposed on a Confederate flag. It is shipped with a "Dukes of Hazzard" screen saver.

Also note:

My Computer is called "This Dern Contraption"
Dial-up Networking is called "Good Ol' Boys"
The Recycle Bin is labeled "Outhouse"
Control Panel is known as "The Dashboard"
Hard Drive is referred to as "4 Wheel Drive"
Floppies are "them little ol plastic disc thangs"
Instead of an error message a "garbage bag and roll of duct tape" pops up.
