Texas Version of Windows 2002
Dear Customers:
It has come to our attention that a few copies of the WINDOWS 2002 TEXAS EDITION may have accidentally been shipped outside of TEXAS. If you have
one of these, you may need some help understanding the commands. The TEXAS edition may be recognized by the unique opening screen. It reads:
WINDERS 02, with a background picture of Sam Houston superimposed on a Texas flag.
It is shipped with a Remember the Alamo screen saver.
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 disc thangs"
Instead of an error message a "garbage bag and roll of duct tape" pops up.
