macos file system is _case insensitive_
For some reason the default (pre-installed) HFS in last macbook Air (with 10.7.2) is case-insensitive. For example, you cannot create two files: doc and Doc - they are same. BUT: depending of which file was created first, you won't be able to access using different-cased name...
In short: create is case-insensitive, access is case-sensitive. Very annoying behaviour.
