Bah. That "kibibyte" nonsense was introduced in 1999, *50 years* after the rise of modern computing! A "kilobyte" has _never_ been 1000 bytes. A "megabyte" has _never_ been 1000000 bytes. That doesn't change just because silly academics say so. -- BjörnReceived on 2006-03-07 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
