 Dear Consumers:

 It has come to our attention that a few copies of the WINDOWS 2000 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:

 on the Alamo.

 My Computer is called "This Dern Contraption"
 Dial Up Networking is called "Good Ol' Boys"
 Control Panel is known as "The Dashboard"

 Floppies are "Them little ol' plastic thangs"
 Instead of an error message, "Duct tape" pops up
