Ebonics Version of Windows

Microsoft has announced the release of a special Ebonics
version of Windows 98, titled "IT BE A FRESH WINDOW."

There are numerous differences between standard Windows 98
and the Ebonics version. For example, when opening the
Ebonics version, the familiar windows chime is replaced
with a "phat getto track that melts 'em down wit dope-ass
bass."

The opening screen features a Windows logo that is spray
painted on a brick wall along with several gangsta signs,
slogans, and "shout outs".  On the main screen, My Computer
is replaced with "Dis My Sh*$."  The Recycle Bin has been
replaced with a Goodwill dumpster.  If users are logged on
to a network, the Network Neighborhood is replaced with
"Da Hood." Users have their choice of two animated screen
savers "Marquee,"  a lil' G spray painting dirty words that
move across the screen; or "Flying Bullets," a '64 Olds'
loaded with gangstas doing a desktop drive by.

Users of the Ebonics version will notice several command
and dialogue box changes:

1. Break Back In = Re-entry
2. Aww Sh*$, = Error
3. Itz All Good = OK
4. 4 Real Doe =Yes
5. Hold Up, Dawg = Cancel
6. Do Dat Sh*$ Again = Reset
7. R U Crazy = Are You Sure
8. Hunt Dat Bitch Down = Find
9. Put A Cap In It = Delete
10. Games  Sh*$ = Programs
11. Letter Sh&$ = Documents

The Ebonics version comes standard with a special edition
of Microsoft Works titled "Homie Essentials."  The word
processing Program greatly differs from the main-stream
program. Several words on the title bar have been changed:

1. Dat Thang = File
2. I Be Seein' It = View
3. Put Sumpin In = Insert
4. Hook It Up = Format
5. Stuff I Ain't gone Need =Tools
6. Number Sh*% = Table 
7. Break In = Window
8. What Da Fu*%??? = Help

Note: "Stuff I ain't gone need" (Tools) does not include
spelling or grammar check options, cuz they won't get used
anyway.  And Auto Correct has been replaced with "Keepin'
it Real".
