South African edition of Windows 98

Post by hobiecat » April 6th, 2004, 3:43 pm

It has come to our attention that a few copies of the New South African edition of Windows 98 may have accidentally been shipped outside South Africa. If you have one of the New South African editions you may need some help understanding the commands. The New South African edition may be recognized by looking at the opening screen. It reads "E WINDOWS 98" with a background picture of a Mageu bottle superimposed on an Orlando Pirates flag. It is shipped with a Black Label screen saver.

New Features:

OK = samblief

Cancel = Aikona

Undo = auk! mistake!

Redo = aikona, not mistake!

Save = Ekke ek bere hom

find = Ekke ek soek hom

help = ah dunno

start = stat

settings = (pre-set on this edition)

run = hamba

personal folder = my thieengs

Shut Down = Chaila

Some programs that are exclusive to "E Windows 98"

MS Werd = a word processor

calculata = calculator

scratch peppa = notepad

Jive Box = CD player

I Explora = Microsoft Internet Explorer

piktchas = a graphics viewer

Stockvel = M/S accounting software

Shebeen = Shortcut to a website with a list of

local off-sales and their prices.

Black Label tax records = usually an empty file

Fafi = game replacing Solitaire

We regret any inconvenience it may have cause if you received a copy of the New South African edition. You may return it to Microsoft for a replacement version.
