Infotix -- A Technology notepad

I received a mail from Alex asking (in brief) "Why I am not able to name a folder/text document as "CON" in XP?"

Solution: I am not sure about this "CON" command in XP but I think this is somewhat similar to "NUL" command which is a reserved directory in DOS . If you want a full list of commands then visit this link. Since these types of files or directories are no longer in use in XP but for backup point of view they are still reserved in DOS directory.
