This is my "Game machine"

 

funny quote from the link you posted:
"This is indeed still possible in the Windows XP console, and can you see what mess it would cause if you let files or folders have the name 'con'? What would 'copy con newfile.txt' then mean? BSOD?"

Well, if you had a directory named "con" and typed "copy con newfile.txt" in the console, it would, most likely, merely copy the contents of any text files in the local con directory to newfile.txt. Hardly a big deal. But not very helpful if you were trying to capture the console. Now, if this were a *nix system we were talking about, it'd let you create your directory, and then let you deal with the unintended consequences all by your lonesome. I'll take a bit of shepherding from Windows, thank you

 

What, you mean you weren't serious when you told me to rm -rf /

Oh shit!

 

read-only partitions are your friend

 

type this in a command prompt

mkdir \\.\c:\con

or try

mkdir \\.\c:\lpt1

this is a silly trick. why would anyone want a folder called lpt1?

to remove it, type

rmdir \\.\c:\lpt1

 

No trouble for me either:
