Windows/ Southern style

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.

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!

Excellent find

Now y'all come back, here!

I still have to figure out what a r-out-er is though. Is it the same thing as a rooter?

Hey, where can I get one of them things? It sounds like where I grew up. Nowadays they have 6 Rooms and Bath; we had FOUR ROOMS AND PATH!



We were real modern, though- we had the latest Coal Oil Lamps and a neat bucket to drop down the well for water, and the crick just down from the house had some great crawdad fishing. Them Louisiana mudbugs were great eating, as long as you didn't mind getting your hands a bit messy shucking 'em.

Things may have changed some, but I think we were really happier back then. And that's a SERIOUS COMMENT.

Hahaha! Thanks for the giggle Bob!
