It has to be something bytes, but what?) <snip> Don't know about the actual problem, but MiB stands for MibiBytes, where Mibi is the proper way to say 'powers of 1024' (Mi == 1024*1024), in contrast to the M of Mega, which is a power of 1000 (M == 1000*1000). Normally an oridnary Mega is used to denote 1024^2, but since we do not want to contradict the Systeme Internationale, Mibi is introduced (along with kiB, kibibytes). Cheers, Sebastiaan -- NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem (also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98 16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a *real* 32-bit system. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
