> Most companies see 300000mb as 300GB, but OSs see 300000 as 300000/1024 or 293GB..
Actually (for the sake of hair-splitting...), it's worse than that. Marketers see 300,000,000,000 bytes as 300 GB, while OSes will see it as 300,000,000,000 / (1024 * 1024 * 1024) = 279.4 GB. I remember reading somewhere that it's the difference between "300GB" and "300 GB" but I'm not sure if that's true, and if it is I can't remember which is which. ~B -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
