If I am not completely mistaken, 1^n/1,024^n is converging against 0
for n vs infinite. That is certainly an unwarranted facilitation of
Kryder's law for very large storage devices.

well, that's true, even if it is Limit n->infinity for [1000^n /
1024^n] it's still 0. :-)
Actually, my old Calculus teacher would be disappointed in me.
It's Lim n->infinity ( 1000^n / (2^10)^n)
or:
Lim n->infinity (1000^n / 2^10n)
As Tonmaus pointed out, it all still trends to 0.
Now that little bit of pedantic anal calculus-izing is over, back to our
regularly schedule madness.
