Also, remember that one of the most common misreadings is when talking about
audio file/data quality, they talk about Kbps = kilobits per second, but
people read it as KBPS where using a capitalised B would then mean kilobytes
per second, which would be a slightly different perspective.

Sorry, but, remember that a bit is smaller than a byte - 1 byte = 8

Let us not forget the fact that there are 8 bits in a byte and 1024 bytes in
a kilobyte. The fact is boys and girls although a hard drive for example may
indeed have a trillion bytes of storage it is in fact only a 931 gigabyte

Hi John,
This is a nice dissertation on the subject,
but it would be helpful to the not so literate computer user to keep a
clear distinction between hard drive storage, and, physical memory (ram).
So many computer terms are used inter-changeably, that it can become
confusing.

A byte is a single exchange of digital data. It is the minimal measurement

Did you run a scan with SAS 5.1? If so, were any malicious threats
