    It has come to our attention that a few copies of the North
    Dublin version of Windows 2000 may have accidentally been
    shipped outside of Ireland.

    If you have one of the North Dublin editions you may need some help
    understanding the commands.

    The North Dublin edition may be recognised by looking at the loading
    screen.
    It reads "Windoze 2000" with a background picture of a syringe
    superimposed on a photograph of the The Anna Livia.

    It is shipped with the Guinness screen saver.
    Also note:
    The Recycle Bin is labeled '****e'
    Dialup Networking is called 'all me mates'
    Control Panel is known as 'the ****in' computer settins'
    The Hard Drive is referred to as 'big ****-off disk'

    Other Features:
    OK = alroi'
    cancel = **** that
    yes = roight
    no = no bleedin' chance boss
    find = go an' get it your ****in self
    help = I can't ****in' do it
    start = go on ya good thing
    personal folder = all me ****

    Also note that Windoze 2000 does not recognise capital letters
    or punctuation marks.

    Some programs that are exclusive to Windoze 2000:
    type ritor = a word processor
    cullarin book = a graphics package
    addin masheen = calculator
    choons = CD player
    dole = accounting software
    bevvy = local off-licences by postcode and price of Guinness
    porno = Microsoft Internet Explorer

    We regret any inconvenience it may cause if you received a copy
    of the North Dublin edition. You may return it for an immediate
    replacement.

    Localized for North Dublin?!
    That's gotta' be a fake.

    Anyway, everyone knows that South Dublin has way more skangers, check a map ffs.
