The puzzling reactions of the operating system

Taking funny pictures of her son, Hoai decided to save them in a folder. But because of the hurry, she did not name The Anh folder, but recorded it as Son. Oddly enough, Windows XP just stopped, not letting her do that and only showing New Folder.

" Do not understand what Microsoft grudges about this word without giving it, " Hoai said. " I looked up the dictionary, seeing 'con' in English means cheating. But that doesn't mean as bad as many other words ."

Mr. Nguyen Van Thanh Son, IT engineer of CDS Solution company, explains: " Each operating system has its own keywords and requires the user not to give the same name. Standard input This name is used in programs or on the command line when you want to access the device, for example, when you want to export the data to the printer, the device that is accessed is PRN, you want to export to the device screen. will be CON, the data entered from the device keyboard will be CON ".

The errors of the operating system are many and have long made users crazy. However, when using computers, the information technology community has discovered interesting things, including "errors" that software engineers intentionally write down for the purpose of playing jokes.

Hai, a medical student who is learning English, is confused when using the Speech utility ( Start> Control Panel> Speech ) to listen to the word " crotch ". He could not understand what the computer was saying because it was strange. Much later, when asking "experts", he knew it was almost "crow's-net", meaning "wild carrot tree".

Another funny error is also found in the Solitaire card game built into Windows (Start> All Programs> Games> Solitaire ). When others have to struggle to win the computer, just press Alt_Shift_2 as the screen that shows the part of the dancing cards, signaling victory.

" Silly errors from computer software are very interesting ," said Phuong, a Hanoi University IT student. " We call it" Easter egg "and finding this egg is often by accident ."

Readers can find "eggs" by typing Easter Egg and computer or software on Google.
