Hi All!

MAGIC #1

An Indian found that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the Computer
which can be named as "CON". This is something funny and inexplicable. At
Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened!
TRY IT NOW, IT WILL NOT CREATE A "CON" FOLDER

MAGIC #2

For those of you using Windows, do the following:

1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want.
4.) Close it, and re-open it.

Noticed the weird bug? No one can explain!

MAGIC #3

Again this is something funny and can't be explained. At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!

It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself.
Open Microsoft Word and type

=rand (200, 99)
And then press ENTER
And see the magic.

Yes its correct that you cannot name a folder as CON ..but this is not some secret which this message claims...its also false that even microsoft doesnt know the answer.

CON, PRN, LPT13 are standard strings reserved by windows...thats y you cant use them as folder names because if you create them then your operating system will get confused as to whether execute the internal command or open the particular folder.
