The stupidest Apple OS X feature

I finally found the stupidiest Apple OS X bug. I was copying mp3s to a small USB drive (thumbdrive/jumpdrive) and OS X copied 8 out of the 10 files. It stopped at 8 because the drive was full.

BUT THEN, Apple’s OS deleted the first 8 files that would fit on the drive. I then had to remember that it was eight files that would fit on the drive and copy only those.
