What the … Windows CON

I don’t know if this is true, and certainly have no way of testing it, but is it possible to create a directory called CON on Windows ? and if you so can you delete it ?

Answers on a postcard to the usual address.

UPDATE : Brad confirmed it on XP.

    CONfirmed. If I try to create a CON folder in Explorer, the name reverts back to “New Folder”. If I try to use the command-line, I get “The directory name is invalid.” This is on XP.
