RE: Maryland BS Question :)




We have too many politicians in Maryland. Their job, in their opinion, is
challenge whether or not the sky is blue.  Once they have enough excitement
over the debate, they request money to create a new government agency to
study the issue.  This agency consists of two high paid executives (the
brother-in-laws of the politician) who subcontract the study.  The answer is
expected sometime in 2025, and will cost 3-4 million.

Sales are not down in Maryland - government sub-contractors find questions
like the meaning of "Start" to be very profitable!  Smile everyone - we all
need it!

(tongue-in-cheek) How did Microsoft get away with this one on Windows?  I
guess Bill Gates thought that everyone knew the meaning of the word "Start".
That must be why sales of Windows is down in Maryland.

Maryland is using 4.1.6

Can someone tell me if this is available in a future version:

On the 1st screen that says "English" and "Start" (before the instructions
page)
they want to add a comment that says,
'Press "Start" to begin'

They feel the "Start" button is not self explanatory.
