Dear Consumas:

It has come ta our attention dat a coupola copies of the Windows (Brooklyn Edition) may have accidentally bin shipped outsida Brooklyn. If ya got one a dese, you may need some help understandin' da commands.

Da Brooklyn edition may be recognized by da unique openin' screen. It reads: "Windas" wit a background picture of Grand Army Plaza. When you start da program, instead of da usual "harpy, stringy" music, you hear da teme from da Godfadda. It is also shipped wit a Sopranos screen sava.

Please also note:

-Recycle Bin is labeled "Staten Island."

-My Computer is called "My Friggin' Computa."

-The Inbox is referred to as "Da Trunk."

- Deleted Items are referred to as "Wacked," "Erased," or "Rubbed Out."

- Dial up Networking is called "Da Bar."

- Control Panel is known as the "Da Bosses."

- Performin' an "illegal operation" is known as "enhancin' the family business" and will actually maximize da program instead of shuttin' it down.

- Hard Drive is referred to as "Da BQE Rush Hour."

- Instead of an error message a "You ain't gonna friggin' believe dis!" pops up.
