intresting facts and 'tips n tricks'

[misguidedyouth]

dear friends,
i'd like to start a new thread where we can put some intresting facts.

like if u type "=rand(200,99)" and then press 'enter' in MSword you will get suprising result (already posted on jatland)

just discovered an intresting fact about windows that we can not create a folder named as "con".
is it because of the copy con command in dos ???
con being some kind of reserved directory ???

all members are requested to share some intrested technical facts and other tips and tricks.
