Windows
99 (the South African version) (courtesy
of Herby Honigsperger)
It has come to our attention that a few copies of the New South African
edition of Windows 99 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 recognised by looking at the opening
screen. It reads "E-WEENDOWS 99" with a background picture of
a Mageu bottle superimposed on a Orlando Pirates flag. It is shipped with
a choice of a Black Label or a Toyota Hi-Ace screen saver.
