A mail I received which I thought was worth sharing with some easter eggs in Microsoft's application. Try them out and see it for yourself.
MAGIC #1
An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the
Computer which can be named as "CON". This is something pretty
Cool...and Unbelievable.... At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this
happened!
TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER
MAGIC #2
For those of you using Windows, do the following:
1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want.
4.) Close it, and re-open it.
is it just a really weird bug? :-??
MAGIC #3
Microsoft crazy facts
This is something pretty cool and neat...and unbelievable...
At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!
It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself...
Open Microsoft Word and type
=rand (200, 99)
And then press ENTER
Then see the magic...............................

hey there... thats cool man~~ sure that is not a bug or somee kind of virus?? haha..
Hey,
Well I have some theories for you :)
(1) This is an old DOS restriction; I know as I have been using DOS since 1.0 (yep, getting old). CON is a restricted word, short for CONsole (the screen) ... and was used 'in the good ole text based console days', for example, to copy the screen contents to a text file, eg:
copy con test.txt
So this makes sense, kind of.
(2) This is in fact a bug :
