some amazing facts

Hi Friends these are somw amazing facts abt Microsoft Window

1. You can't create a folder name "con" Try it.

Ans:
This goes back to the days of DOS. CON is the name of a port on your
computer and thus the name is reserved for devices. This is the same
reason you can’t create folders called LPT1 (Printer port). Since all
versions of windows were built on top of DOS, the reserved names have
stuck

2. Write the following text into notepad: "bush hid the facts" nd
"this app can break" without the double quotes save the file and
reopen and see the magic.
Ans:
This is apparently a bug in Notepad where it can’t tell the difference
between ASCII and Unicode in certain word patterns (such as 4-3-3-5
lettered words). If you have some of the Asian language packs
installed, the boxes show up as characters. Try it with “Bill can not
dance” and “This app can break”

3.Open Microsoft word and type =rand(200,99) and press enter and see
the magic....

Ans:
This is actually a feature in word which allows you to quickly insert
dummy text into word documents. it also works if you replace rand with
lorem. The numbers can also be changed. =lorem(2,6) for example, will
give you two, six line long paragraphs of Lorem Ipsum

mkdir \\.\d:\con


just do this with command prompt...
