Dear Consumers:
It has come to our attention that a few copies of the
WINDOWS 98 SOUTH CAROLINA EDITION may have accidentally been
shipped outside SOUTH CAROLINA. If you have one of these, you
may need some help understanding the commands.
The SOUTH CAROLINA 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.

My Computer is called "This Dern Contraption"
Dial up Networking is called "Good Ol' Boys"

Instead of an error message a "garbage bag and roll of duct
tape" pops up
