I notice he uses B$ (byte dollar?), rather than G$. (Currency isn't and
never will be SI [because it doesn't measure things; it counts them], but if
he's going to prefix the dollar sign as though it were SI, he should at
least use the correct prefix.)

He makes some very good points, though. And, as you indicate, very
emphatically.
