[R] residuals from lm

Hi, 
I was playing around with something else and I noticed this matrix code for
residuals in a linear model doesn't say what lm() says.  Please tell me if I
am completely misguided here. 

data(mtcars)
Y <- as.matrix(mtcars[,1])
X <- as.matrix(mtcars[,c(2:11)])

# shouldnt this: 
H <- X %*% solve(t(X) %*% X) %*% t(X)
(diag(dim(H)[1]) - H) %*% Y

# be equal to this:
residuals(lm(Y~X)) 

# ???      
# thanks
