Most of the time you won't have to say it. Spoken language tends to be less formal than written language, and 2^10 bytes still is approximately a kilobyte (and so on up to giga, where the approximation starts to fail). So you only have to say kibibyte when you need to be precise. -- Magnus Holmgren [EMAIL PROTECTED] (No Cc of list mail needed, thanks)
