Filenames are not case-sensitive. a.b is exactly the same as A.B or a.B or A.b 
, etc.

We are talking about cosmetics here.  The OS would actually run faster and be 
less intrusive if filenames were case-sensitive because all the "normalizing" 
that takes place would be eliminated.  Filename-intensive apps would run 
quicker too.

Actually, changing to case-sensitive filenames at this point in time would be 
consistent with M$'s practice of arbitrarily changing things.
