Is this a bug? Windows create folder

01.Blogs :

At first I couldn't believe this, but when i tried it. It sure can't create one.

An Indian discovered that nobody can create a folder or file anywhere named as "con" or "CON". This is something pretty cool and unbelievable At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened . Try it out yourself

Naming a File.

Do not use the following reserved device names for the name of a file: CON, PRN, AUX, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, and LPT9. Also avoid these names followed by an extension, for example, NUL.tx7.
Windows NT: CLOCK$ is also a reserved device name.
