Try to rename a folder to 'Con' in Windows - you can't do it. It always reverts back to the previous name.

all these wont work; this are MS-dos commands to a part of The PC

Con : monitor

com1 -com4 : serial ports

aux= com1

prn - lpt1 (printer)


Liked the things used in the "pre" SSDi times more... Like some plZ still know

Of course - forgot about the old DOS commands.
Nothing like a bit of legacy hangover! That'll be why Windows 7 returns an invalid device name error :ugeek:
