For the simple cases of ADE orbifolds with regular Chan-Paton action a prescription for consistent boundary states is given. In the process of outlining how they encode McKay correspondence, we argue that this results from a non-trivial conspiracy of numerical factors in the string amplitudes.Latex, 11 pages, no figuresHigh Energy Physics - TheoryBoundary states and non-abelian orbifoldstext
