Hi all,

This is just fun that my mother sent to me that she thought that you might
enjoy.

> Dear Tech Support,
>
> Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and noticed that
> the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of
> space and valuable resources. No mention of this phenomenon was
> included in the product brochure. In addition, Wife 1.0 installs itself
> into all other programs and launches during system initialization,
> where it monitors all other system activity.
>
> Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Drunken Boys Night 2.5 and
> Saturday Football 5.0 no longer run, crashing the system whenever
> selected. I can not seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while
> attempting to run some of my other favorite applications. I am thinking
> about going back to Girlfriend 7.9, but un-install does not work on
> this program.  Can you help me, please?
>
> Thanks,

> Dear Joe:
> This is a very common problem men complain about but is mostly due to a
> primary misconception. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife
> 1.0 with the idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a "UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT"
> program. Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by its creator to
> run everything. It is unlikely you would be able to purge Wife 1.0 and
> still convert back to Girlfriend 7.0.  Hidden operating files within
> your system would cause Girlfriend 7.0 to emulate Wife 1.0 so nothing
> is gained. It is impossible to un-install, delete, or purge the program
> files from the system once installed.
>
> You can not go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is not designed
> to do this. Some have tried to install Girlfriend 8.0 or Wife 2.0 but
> end up with more problems than the original system.  Look in your
> manual under "Warnings: Alimony/Child Support." I recommend you keep
> Wife 1.0 and just deal with the situation. Having Wife 1.0 installed
> myself, I might also suggest you read the entire section regarding
> General Partnership Faults (GPFs). You must assume all responsibility
> for faults and problems that might occur, regardless of their cause.
> The best course of action will be to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE.
>
> In any case, avoid excessive use of the "Esc" key because ultimately
> you will have to give the APOLOGIZE command before the operating system
> will return to normal. The system will run smooth as long as you take
> the blame for all the GPFs. Wife 1.0 is a great program, but very high
> maintenance. Consider buying additional software to improve the
> performance of Wife 1.0.
>
> I recommend Flowers 2.1 and Chocolates 5.0. Do not, under any
> circumstances, install Secretary With Short Skirt 3.3. This is not a
> supported application for Wife 1.0 and is likely to cause irreversible
> damage to the operating system.
>
> Best of luck.
