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 a 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 Also note: The Recycle Bin is labelled Dustbin. Control Panel is known as Don' touch dees buttons! 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.
